Alcoholism

Remember that everything that is being taken too much is bad. Take what is enough and don’t take beyond the limit. An example of taking things more than we need, is illustrated in drinking alcoholic beverages. We know that all excess is bad, and it is the same as drinking plenty of alcohol. In the United States, a survey discovered that there is a growing number of alcohol dependence and abuse.
Alcohol abuse refers to excessive or problematic use of alcohol. It produces one or more of the following effects in the person:

o Failure to fulfill major obligations at work, school, or home
o Legal problems]

Its recurrent use can bring hazard to situations and relationships. There are plenty of interpersonal problem that have been caused by or worsened by drinking.

Alcohol dependence refers to a more serious disorder involving excessive and wrong use. It leads to 3 or more of the following signs:
o Tolerance changes (need for more to achieve desired effect, or achieving the effect with lesser amounts of alcohol)
o Withdrawal symptoms following a reduction or cessation of drinking (such as sweating, rapid pulse, tremors, insomnia, nausea, vomiting, hallucinations, agitation, anxiety, or seizures) or using alcohol to avoid withdrawal symptoms (for example, early morning drinking)
o Drinking more alcohol or drinking over a longer period of time than intended (loss of control)
o Inability to cut down or stop
o Spending a great deal of time drinking or recovering from its effects
o Giving up important social, occupational, or recreational activities
o Continuing to drink despite knowing alcohol use has caused or worsened problems

Alcoholism can be prevented, same as smoking. Don’t start so it won’t get hard to quit. If you do, you would quit life in an early age. Every thing that goes beyond limit is bad.
