Alcohol consumption affects the function of chemical messengers in the brain that appear to influence sleep.
Individuals who use both alcohol and drugs are at risk for dangerous interactions between these substances and there is an increased risk of fatal poisoning.
Any concerns you may have about discussing drinking-related problems with your health care provider or contacting a drug rehabilitation program may stem from common misconceptions about alcoholism and alcoholic people. In our society, the myth prevails that an alcohol problem is a sign of moral weakness. As a result, you may feel that to seek help is to admit some type of shameful defect in yourself. In fact, alcoholism is a serious health problem that is no more a sign of weakness than is asthma. Moreover, taking steps to identify a possible drinking problem has an enormous payoff-a chance for a healthier, more rewarding life.
Alcoholism, also known as "alcohol dependence," is a serious medical situation that includes four symptoms: Craving: A strong need, or compulsion, to drink. Loss of control: The inability to limit one's drinking on any given occasion. Physical dependence: Withdrawal symptoms, such as nausea, sweating, shakiness, and anxiety, occur when alcohol use is stopped after a period of heavy drinking. Tolerance: The need to drink greater amounts of alcohol in order to "get high."
