Alcoholism is a chronic, often progressive disease in which a person craves alcohol and drinks despite repeated alcohol related problems (like losing a job or a relationship).

Alcoholism involves a physical dependence on alcohol, but other factors include genetic, psychological, and cultural influences.

Becoming addicted to alcohol is a gradual process that happens as alcohol changes the level of chemicals in your brain, especially gamma-aminobutyric acid or GABA (which stops you from being impulsive) and dopamine (which is linked with pleasurable feelings).

As the levels of these chemicals change, you crave alcohol to make yourself feel good again.

It refers to a chronic disorder in which a person can’t resist himself from frequent and excessive consumption of alcohol.
Excessive drinking damages liver and also causes various digestive disorders. In severe cases it damages the brain cells and also affects the heart.

Alcoholics can be easily recognized due to their puffy face and bloodshot eyes. Their voice is hoarse and pulse rate is very rapid. They are prone to be irritable, suspicious and over-emotional.
Alcoholics are likely to suffer symptoms such as bouts of vomiting, delirium, disturbed sleep and impaired judgment

Alcoholics eventually land up with the disease called cirrhosis of liver where the liver is damaged due to heavy drinking. The bowel movement gets disturbed and other complications like, stomach disorder, weak and flaccid heart and damaged brain cells render the person unfit.
