Are you preoccupied with alcohol? Do you have impaired control of you're alcohol intake? Well may be you're an alcoholic, alcoholism usually involves physical dependence on alcohol, but genetic, psychological and social factors contribute as well. Have you continued to drink despite the serious adverse health, personal, financial and work-related consequences? Has your glass of wine to unwind turned into a bottle? Do you turn to a drink instead of a friend or counselor? Do all your outings include alcohol? If you have answered yes to some or most of these questions it may be time to take a good look at yourself and your life. Alcoholism left untreated can be fatal, but there is hope for the alcoholic with treatment.
