Alcohol
and drug abuse are the most destructive public health problems in modern
society. The most baffling aspect of alcohol and drug abuse is how the
addicts and alcholics drink and use because and in spite of the problems
created while drinking and using. Popular misperception and conservative
conventional wisdom postulates that alcohol and drug abuse involves
willpower, self control or personal choice. Medical experts agree that
alcoholism and addiction are mental obsession coupled with a physical
allergy: One drink is too many and one hundred is not enough.
Alcohol and drug abusers try varying degrees of control in their addiction:
limiting drinks/drugs, switching brands and types, controlling the amount,
controlling the time, spacing drinks and/or attempting varying methods
of cutting down or “going on the wagon.” If you have a problem with
alcohol and/or drug abuse or someone you know has a problem and needs

sobriety. A solid alcohol recovery program consists of initial treatment
