- It seems that there is some genetic predisposition to fall into alcoholism. - This does not justify all cases. - It is more normal for a person to develop a fondness for a drink when a young man sees that the people around him were usually. - Alcohol is the drug more used. - Drinking is common in the most important moments of life.
Also turn to alcohol to forget their troubles, either by depression caused by diferent causes, such as a family feud, abandonment by parents and/or children, as well as problems at work, studies or with your partner.
 TYPES OF DRINKERS: THERE ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DRINKERS, WE COULD FALL INTO FOUR DIFFERENT CLASSES: - MODERATE DRINKER: REGULAR INTAKE OF DIFFERENT ALCOHOLIC DRINKS ¾ GALLONS PER DAY. - REGULAR DRINKER: ALL SOCIAL LIFE IS CENTERED ON ALCOHOL. DO NOT EAT FOR PLEASURE, BUT BECAUSE HE APPARENTLY BRINGS A SENSE OF SECURITY, VALUE OR PLEASURE. AT FIRST, THE INTAKE IS CIRCUMSTANTIAL, AND CAN STOP DRINKING. OVER TIME, ESTABLISHING THE HABIT. - ALCOHOL: CHARACTERIZED BY ALCOHOL DEPENDENCE, BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY, AND THE INABILITY TO STOP OR ABSTAIN.
