Alcoholism
"The social
problems arising from alcoholism can be
massive and are caused in part due to
the serious pathological changes induced
in the brain from prolonged alcohol
misuse and partly because of the the
intoxicating effects of alcohol. Being
drunk or hung over during work hours can
result in
loss of employment, which can lead
to financial problems including the loss
of living quarters. Drinking at
inappropriate times, and behavior caused
by reduced judgment, can lead to legal
consequences, such as criminal charges
for
drunk driving or public disorder, or
civil penalties for
tortious behavior. An alcoholic's
behavior and mental impairment while
drunk can profoundly impact surrounding
family and friends, possibly leading to
marital conflict and
divorce, or contributing to
domestic violence. This can
contribute to lasting damage to the
emotional development of the alcoholic's
children, even after they reach
adulthood. The alcoholic could suffer
from loss of respect from others who may
see the problem as self-inflicted and
easily avoided."
