BE IN THE KNOW -- ALCOHOLISM
Alcoholism is a disorder with profound psychological, biological, and social effects. It directly affects more than 18 million people
and another 56 million indirectly. It is usually characterized by one of three patterns:
The disorder is usually progressive, and physical dependence can develop; if this happens, serious, sometimes life-threatening symptoms can develop when alcohol is withdrawn. Short term effects of alcohol use can include depression, gastritis, liver disease, automobile accidents, and domestic violence. Chronic alcohol abuse can produce irreversible health changes, including dementia, sexual impotence, cirrhosis of the liver, and heart disease. Death can occur either as a complication of one of these chronic conditions, or acutely, secondary to alcohol intoxication by poisoning, aspiration, or as a result of an automobile accident.
