Today, there are promising types of counseling that teach alcoholics to identify situations and feelings that trigger the urge to drink and to find new ways to cope that do not include alcohol use. These treatments are often provided on an outpatient basis.
As a governmental alcohol agency has explained, "Alcohol no more causes alcoholism than sugar causes diabetes;" this same government agency points out that if alcohol caused alcoholism then every person that drinks would become an alcoholic.
Adolescents who consume alcohol are more likely to engage in risky sexual activities, like having sex with someone they don't know or failing to use birth control.
Women cannot drink the same amount as men even if the weight of both of the individuals is the same, because they metabolize alcohol differently.
