Alcoholism is a serious disease that has its own symptoms.
It is generally accepted that alcoholics are people who have no job, no friends and are beyond the pale of normal life. But this is not true. After all, dependent people can hold prestigious positions, have an important status and many acquaintances. This can continue for quite a long time.
But then, by what specific signs can one identify an alcoholic?
Psychologist Natalia Kursova spoke about this in more detail for AiF .
The first sign, as the specialist noted, is when any holiday or ordinary get-together with friends is accompanied by alcohol.
An alcoholic will always find a reason, for example, stress, a hard day, etc. The reason for dissatisfaction can be anything.
She also noted that therapy is important in treating addiction.
It is necessary to find the cause of the problem in order to fight it in the future.
