About Alcohol AbuseThis is a featured page

What Is Alcohol Abuse?
Alcohol abuse is defined a pattern of drinking that can result in the experience of recurring alcohol-related legal problems (such as DWIs and DUIs); ongoing alcohol-related relationship problems; the failure to attend to important responsibilities at school, work, or at home; or physical injury during a twelve-month time frame.

Why Take Risks With Your Life?

If you abuse alcohol you could be taking some major health risks with your life. How? Many individuals who involve themselves in binge drinking, who drink excessively, or who abuse alcohol in any way can eventually become alcohol dependent. In other words, those who continuously abuse alcohol are essentially playing roulette with their health due to the fact that such behavior may initiate the transition from "alcohol abuse" to "alcohol dependence."

Strive For Positive Changes

Why not do something healthy and constructive for yourself and stop abusing alcohol before you experience a major alcohol-related problem such as the loss of a job, a potential alcohol overdose, or becoming alcohol dependent? Remember that "drinking in moderation" can work for many individuals. For those who cannot consume any alcoholic beverages, however, sobriety seems to be the only sensible course of action.
