Alcohol abuse is overrated, while drug abuse is
underrated. The DSM manual suggests that
substance abuse there are differences
in the definition of drug and alcohol use. To confuse matters worse the law has
its own version of who is an alcoholic or drug addict. Some of the symptoms
that help professionals determine if alcohol and drugs are a problem include,
excessive drinking/drugging, problems with the law, withdrawal symptoms,
shaking of the hands, and so forth. If a person drinks everyday of the week and
relies on alcohol, then you are probably dealing with an alcoholic. There are
philosophers who claim if a person needs a drink at breakfast, that he or she
is an alcohol. Some philosophers claim that if you drink more than six-pack
weeks then you are an alcoholic. The fact is, most of the people nagging or
evaluating alcohol and drugs has a problem them self or has gotten help someone
in their lifetime to treat their own problems. Therefore, as you can see
addictions, dependant alcoholics, and other types of alcoholics and drug
addicts may alter. First all, any chemical that causes harm is a potential
danger to your being. In other words if you start out drinking when you are
fourteen and continue through your lifetime without alcohol causing you
trouble, or else landing you a spot in jail, then you are probably not an
alcoholic according to few. The fact is the ones that are drinking and driving
and getting caught are alcoholics according to the system although the level of
alcohol in the blood plays a role in the determination. The truth is the law
sometimes over dramatizes and the system is out to make all the money they can,
so we all might be alcoholics by the time they are done with us. Alcoholism and
drug addictions are complex, in the sense there are too many misconstrued
inputs and often the label is placed on individuals according to culture and
history. If you parents drank alcohol then the system sometimes will claim you
as an alcoholic. The fact is, Jesus drink wine in moderation, so drinking in
moderation is not a bad thing. The problem becomes a problem when the person
has difficulty putting down the bottle and/or increases their intake as well as
combining drugs with the alcohol to get an affect they was had. If someone will
steal or lie to get alcohol or drugs then you know they have a real problem.
However, most alcoholics and drug addicts have bigger problems than addictions
and this is often ignored. For example, people with mental illnesses often resort
to alcohol and/or drugs to find relief of their symptoms. Now if a professional
is treating this person for his or her diagnose and progress is moving along
the person often feels healthy and the alcohol and drugs are out the door. In
my studies and opinions, I disagree with alcoholism and drug addictions if the
person is able to stop once the mental illness is treated. This means that the
person was suffering and the substances was a mechanism to help them cope. On
the other hand, if the person is treated for mental illnesses and his or her
drug and alcohol habits continue, then I think you had better get out the chair
and start talking ‘one day at a time.’ Alcohol was once known as the “Devils
Drink.” The White men are the originator of the source, and since its beginning
it has caused serious complications, including death, abuse, and other related
crimes. Drugs are optional since the system often makes them available by
teaching individuals what the drugs contain. The root of all-evil is money, and
if a person sees that he or she can gain, they may take advantage, but fall
into a snare in between. The system is overwrought, since they put alcoholics
and drugs addicts in jail and not seeking help for them. The solution to humankind’s
problem is helping and not hurting or promoting. If we can’t get along now,
what makes you think you are going to heaven? Alcohol and Drug Abuse in Mental Health
