About Alcohol Use & Alcoholism

When citing the drug, alcohol is a depressant and refers to ethanol, the main compound present in alcoholic beverages. Alcohol can be found in the form of liquor, beer, as well as wine and is one of the most widely used recreational drugs in the world.

In a 2014 poll by the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 176.5 million people surveyed (81%) said they had consumed alcohol in the past 12 months and also 44% reported binge drinking in the past month.

Symptoms

We understand that alcohol is generally commonplace in society and because of this, many people don’t recognize how dangerous it can be.

The effects of alcohol can be brought on swiftly or over the course of several hours, but once they’re felt, many become hooked.

Dangers & effects of long-term alcohol use

Long-term use of alcohol can have severe effects on the body – mainly the brain and liver – and can also lead to a need for an alcoholism treatment program.

Continued use can disrupt normal brain development and kill brain cells, reducing overall brain mass. It can also permanently damage the liver and can lead to cirrhosis of the organ.

Other dangers include:

Depression
Anxiety
Psychosis
Sleep disorders
Anemia
Chronic gastritis
Neurological impairment
Mouth, tracheal, and/or esophageal cancer

Withdrawal symptoms from long-term alcohol use

Alcohol use disorder can be mild, moderate, or severe, but when one becomes addicted to alcohol, his/her body becomes chemically dependent on it.

This means the need for it is more of a physical reliance than a personal choice. Once this happens, withdrawal symptoms can occur if the user stops consuming alcohol and the individual should seek an alcohol recovery center.

For example, symptoms include:

Headache
Nausea
Vomiting
Anxiety
Insomnia
Sweating
Shaking
In serious cases, hallucinations and/or seizures
