We all know alcoholism can cause diseases, but in itself,
can alcoholism be accurately defined as one?
Instead, I believe it to be a complex form of compulsive behavior or condition; resulting in an addiction.
Opinions?
Good post Lunar, I personally don't think alcohol is the problem, there are millions of people who go about there lives using it responsibly, it is the minority that abuse the substance and subsequently the disease is born within us, but that is why I'm here, I'm in that minority sadly.
Great post Lunar, hope you are doing well.
