The primary distinction between the alcohol abuser and the alcoholic is a physical dependency on alcohol. Alcoholics meet all of the same criteria for alcohol abuse but have also developed a physical addiction to alcohol.
Im young. Is drinking really that bad for my health? Yes. Studies have shown that alcohol use by youth and young adults increases the risk of both fatal and nonfatal injuries. Research has also shown that youth who use alcohol before age 15 are five times more likely to become alcohol dependent than adults who begin drinking at age 21. Other consequences of youth alcohol use include increased risky sexual behaviors, poor school performance, and increased risk of suicide and homicide.
Alcohol, especially when consumed in excess, can affect teens, women, men, and the elderly quite differently.
Each year, thousands of people choke on their own vomit while intoxicated.
