Stress and depression leads to alcoholism. āAlcohol does not answer the question but it helps forget the questionā is the motto that many alcoholics live by. Stress can be brought about by illnesses, lack of employment, lack of finances, rejection by the society, low self esteem, break ups and many other reasons. Different people try to solve their problems by different methods but most choose to try and forget the problems instead of solving them. Alcohol enables one to forget his problems for a while. It starts like that, with one drink and since the stressed individual is not fixing the problem, they keep drinking to forget and soon enough he becomes drunk all the time so as to forget his problems. Alcohol becomes their āfriendā. As they believe they do not have anyone else to help them.
The main reason why teenagers and young adults indulge in alcohol is for pleasure. During parties, celebrations alcohol is always served. These teenagers start by taking alcohol so as to appear cool or so as to fit in their group of friends. It starts as a one night drinking every night and soon develops to every night drinking. Alcohol uplifts oneās spirit and gives one the courage they would not do while they are sober. The youth have so much fun in their drinking and slowly they become addicted to alcohol. Teenagers can also acquire this bad drinking habit from their parents or older relatives. Once a young child is exposed to drinking at a young age, the child then tends to mimic the actions of the parents or older relatives. The child then starts drinking from a very young age of thirteen and by the time
a person is fourteen, he will have learned to drink at a very young age. If a child is not drinking, it is better done not to drink at all but to abstain, just as with the alcoholic drinks. One year you will drink at least once a week, to prevent the alcohol from increasing or decreasing, before you drink again. At the age of fourteen the drug makes its way around the house drinking, drinking too much, too little and too much. If you are not sure about the alcohol level, a small dose will do its work in a less serious way. By then it is time to quit drinking, that is, when you are older. A child is at least four years old at a time at which, under the condition that he may take his own medication, he can get drunk and be drunk at a lot more than he needs to. At this age the drug can become an important part of the adult’s schedule, but it is a very small price to pay for a good dose of its effects. Once a child is a teenager in a young person’s mind, drinking alcohol, even with respect to his drug use, becomes very important, even more so because of it. The more you drink, the worse you are at it. When adolescent, the time from drinking alcohol increases and the younger you are, the less time you have for it for the good and the younger you become, and the harder it is for young people to recover from drinking at this age.
