Apologies, Taz,
I am not physically addicted to alcohol, yet I am an alcoholic. I am quite
psycologically addicted to alcohol, and am working on my thoughts and attitude
in order to maintain my sobriety. It is actually an easy task, now that I am sober and my faith is restored.
I am not an expert in allopathic medicine; I am very well-versed in herbals,
and alternative (traditional) medicines.
It is my understanding that an alcoholic who drinks his or her meals does get physically addicted, however there are many people who drink as an adjunct to there functioning lives, eat somewhat well, and are alcoholics
who are addicted psycologically. I believe it is the precurser to being addicted
physically.
My apologies for broadly stating that "alcohol is not physically addictive"
in my last post. In some people it just takes longer to show.
Allen Carr has helped many people around the world quit addictive behaviors
in his many clinics. His book "How to Stop Drinking" explains the progression
of alcoholism.
