• Drinking as a LIFESTYLE (BEHAVIOUR)

V. Hudolin
ALCOHOLISM and ALCOHOL – RELATD PROBLEMS have ancient origins in our SOCIAL and GENERAL CULTURE
The “DRINKING CULTURE” is the RESULT of COMMON PLACES, HABITS and VESTED INTERESTS
ALTERING THE BALANCE
•Of the INDIVIDUAL
•Of the FAMILY
•Of the COMMUNITY
ALCOHOLISM DETERMINS
SEVERE TROUBLES
(PHYSICAL,
PSYCHIC and SOCIAL)
ALCOHOLISM CAUSES and GROWS WORSE many DESEASES but IT IS NOT by ITSELF a DESEASE
SMOKING and TAKING DRUGS CAUSE and GROW WORSE some DESEASES but they are NOT by themselves a DESEASE
THEY ARE BEHAVIOURS that CANNOT BE
CORRECTED ONLY PHARMACEUTICALLY
ALCOHOLISM
is NOT a DESEASE
It’s a BEHAVIOUR,a LIFE STYLE, PAINFUL and LOSING
•for the INDIVIDUAL
•for the FAMILY
•for the COMMUNITY
