Alcoholism seems to be a big problem in this country. Too many people suffer from alcohol abuse and dependence. Do you agree?
Absolutely. I think some people deny that it is a problem for them which just causes more problems, and then others dont know its a problem when it is.
I agree. Alcohol is particularly dangerous because it can affect the brain, heart, liver, pancreas and even your immune system. It's amazing the damage it can do to someone's body.
Yes it can, people die from it, like millions in the US every year probably
That number wouldn't surprise me because alcoholism can actually increase someone's risk of cancer. It can also cause cirrhosis of the live and even mental illness! It's sad that some people can't stop drinking, even when their lives depend on it.
Also drinking not only can kill the person inflicting it on themselves, but others around them too, like when they are driving and such.
Yes and even worse still is when women drink when they're pregnant. The baby can develop fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. It breaks my heart to think of a baby suffering due to the actions of its mother.
