Alcoholism is described as the lack of control to pass on alcoholic beverages. Alcoholics are basically addicted to alcohol so they keep on consuming beer, spirits and anything with alcohol. For regular individuals, water is the most important drink, compared to alcoholics who never go a day without beer, whiskey and other types of liquor. All individuals do not start out as alcoholics. You will recognize an alcoholic based on his symptoms and lifestyle.
Nonstop craving for alcohol
An alcoholic becomes physically dependent on beer or liquor because their body has been used to consuming it on a daily basis. Some of the usual symptoms include trembling, nausea, anxiety, profuse sweating and irritability once a drink has not been taken for at least 24 to 72 hours. An alcoholic cannot keep himself from drinking once alcohol tolerance is established. He always feels down or depressed unless he gets a round of drinks.
People suffering from alcoholism can actually get some help by joining Alcoholics Anonymous or “AA”. The special group was made primarily to help people overcome alcohol dependence. There are regular meetings where people can share their experiences and help each other get over the symptoms and bad feelings that come initially with trying to be sober. Members can fully become independent through 12 steps.

Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith created Alcoholics Anonymous. The two were also past alcoholics who became sober with some spiritual help. AA is now one of the biggest groups with meetings held all over the world. The 12-step program also includes a published book which helps alcoholics understand how to fully stop drinking.
