WHAT DOES DRINKING PROBLEM MEAN IN ENGLISH?

drinking problem

Alcoholism

Alcoholism is a broad term for problems with alcohol, and is generally used to mean compulsive and uncontrolled consumption of alcoholic beverages, usually to the detriment of the drinker's health, personal relationships, and social standing. It is medically considered a disease, specifically an addictive illness. In psychiatry several other terms have been used, specifically "alcohol abuse", "alcohol dependence," and "alcohol use disorder" which have slightly different definitions.[1] Alcohol misuse has the potential to damage almost every organ in the body, including the brain. The cumulative toxic effects of chronic alcohol abuse can cause both medical and psychiatric problems.[2] The American Medical Association considers alcoholism as a disease[3][4]:452 and supports a classification that includes both physical and mental components.[5]:33 The biological mechanisms that cause alcoholism are not well understood. Social environment, stress,[6] mental health, family history, age, ethnic group, and gender all influence the risk for the condition.
