Alcohol Dependence (Alcoholism)


The American Medical Association (AMA) had declared that alcoholism is an illness in 1956. It mainly has 3 stages and they are as follows.

In the primary Stage, he/she start using alcohol and mostly it doesn’t cause much problems in ones physical, mental, social & financial well being. However it is a causative factor to other diseases.

In the progressive stage it always gets worse over any considered period of time. This means that we can predict with a great deal of accuracy the onset of many symptoms of alcoholism such as blackouts, euphoric recall, and blaming.

In chronic because it never stops on its own accord. Like a bad check, it just keeps coming back.

Dependence Syndrome

Dependence syndrome as being a cluster of physiological, behavioral, and cognitive phenomena in which the use of a substance or a class of substances takes on a much higher priority for a given individual than other behaviors that once had greater value. A central descriptive characteristic of the dependence syndrome is the desire (often strong, sometimes overpowering) to take the psychoactive drugs (which may or not have been medically prescribed), alcohol, or tobacco.
