YES! I too have thought this.
Seeing a handful of alcoholics including my ah.... theres no doubt it resembles that.
Falling everywhere....confused....forgetful ...emotions etc.
Saw an alcoholic few yrs back almost go to the restroom in the kitchen it wasnt until I helped this person (family friend) that they used the correct restroom.
This same person used the restroom broad daylight on their neighbors yard and then got in a fight with the neighbor. Lucky resrroom icidents have not hapoened with ah still its progressive and worrisome
