Alcohol dependence (synonyms: chronic alcoholism, chronic alcohol intoxication, alcohol dependence syndrome, alcohol disease, alcoholic substance abuse, ethylism).
Alcohol dependence refers to diseases characterized by an increase in symptoms (relates to progressive diseases), which is characterized by a pathological attraction to alcohol, the development of withdrawal (hangover) syndrome when stopping alcohol use, and subsequently the development of persistent disorders of the nervous and mental systems and deterioration of the general medical condition. Subsequent use of alcohol is associated with the mental deterioration of the alcohol.
abstinentia (abstinence) is a syndrome of physical and/or mental disorders that develops in people with alcohol use disorder some time after alcohol intake has been stopped or reduced. Withdrawal is a component of physical dependence syndrome.
Alcohol dependence always develops in people who drink systematically. Alcohol dependence is a socially significant disease because alcohol abuse almost always affects society, the family of the alcoholic, friends, loved ones and the alcoholic. Alcoholic is in constant contact with other people (at work, in the family, on the street, etc.) and people around him suffer from this.
Factors contributing to alcohol dependence (alcoholism)
As the social fabric of society becomes more complex, alcohol consumption becomes more individualized, personal motivations increase, and factors contributing to alcohol abuse increase.
Previously, it was believed that the prevalence of alcohol dependence was characteristic of the poor. However, in the late 19th century, with the improvement of well-being, alcohol dependence also began to increase. However, many of you may object, analyzing the data of police reports, people with alcohol dependence are just more among low-income citizens. While police don’t lie about reports, they detain citizens with low educational and property qualifications. People from the less well-off sectors of society, unable to hide their drunkenness, drink on the street, in the gateway, etc. Wealthy citizens drink in expensive restaurants that can be taken home by taxi. This is how the police mostly get drunks from low-income segments of society.
CONCLUSION: Alcohol dependence affects rich and poor alike.
The cause of alcohol dependence must be sought in psychological motives. A mentally unstable citizen may be pushed to alcohol dependence by the following reasons: difficulties in adapting to the external environment, conflict with the environment, dissatisfaction, loneliness, incomprehension, fatigue, awareness of their inferiority. These reasons the drinker tries to relieve temporarily at the expense of alcohol.
Another reason for alcohol dependence is societal attitudes and public morals. The less society accepts sober attitudes, the more alcohol dependence is common. If society turns to sober attitudes (dry law), only those individuals who reject normal social norms, as well as chronic alcoholics who need quality medical care, will drink.
CONCLUSION: Alcohol is consumed either by mentally immature persons (children, adolescents) or by inferior persons who have little access to real pleasure due to insufficient level of moral, intellectual and cultural development.
The spread of drunkenness among young people is facilitated by false beliefs about the harmlessness of alcoholic beverages, the power of customs and copycat factors. The influence of the environment is great, when it is difficult for everyone to drink to remain a teetotaler, and if a person has decided to stop drinking, then it is necessary to change his environment if it interferes with this.
Thus, we came to the conclusion that the development of alcohol dependence is facilitated by the following most important factors: low cultural and spiritual level, not healthy lifestyle, lack of sober attitudes of society, weakness of the will qualities of the person against the background of influences of the immediate environment.
These factors are not fatal to our society and can be overcome only if society itself turns to a sober mindset.
The recent prescriptions that want to impose on our society, namely a "culture of moderate drinking," are not acceptable!!!
Not only chronic alcohol dependence, but also "cultural, moderate drinking" harms the human body, often leads to conflicts in the family and even to the destruction of the family, but, most importantly, has a detrimental effect on the upbringing of children and their mental health.
It has long been noted that under the influence of alcohol, people lose their sense of responsibility to society and the state (more and more so-called "bydlovyh" personalities appear), under the influence of alcohol, hooliganism and more serious offenses grow.
Alcohol addiction leads to a drop in the level of morality of the population.
Below is the classification of domestic drinking:
Withdrawals: People who do not drink alcohol at all.
Accidental drinkers: Persons who consume on average 50-150 ml of vodka from several times a year.
Moderate drinkers: People who consume 100-150 ml. vodka 1-2 times a month.
Systematic drinkers: People who consume 200-30 ml of vodka once a week.
Habitual drinkers: People who consume 500 ml of vodka and more than 2 times a week.
