People who suffer from emotional problems, such as anxiety or depression are reported to be at a particularly high risk for alcoholism, because alcohol may be used to self-medicate.
When an individual has developed a physical dependence on alcohol, withdrawal symptoms, such as nausea, sweating, shakiness, and anxiety, will occur when alcohol use is stopped after a period of heavy drinking.
The crash of the Exxon Valdez that spilled 11.2 million barrels of crude oil involved alcohol. The captain of the tanker, Joseph Hazelwood, was drinking at the time of the crash.
