Alcoholism is the addiction to or dependency upon drinking excessive amounts of alcoholic
beverages.[1] Since the late 20th century, it has been considered an addictive disorder. It is
characterized by compulsive and uncontrolled consumption of alcohol, usually to the detriment of the drinker's health, personal relationships,
and social standing. Like other drug addictions, alcoholism is medically defined as a treatable
disease.
