What is "alcoholism"?
Alcoholism is a chronic and progressive medical condition characterized by a strong craving for alcohol, loss of control over drinking, and continued use despite harmful consequences. It is often referred to as alcohol use disorder (AUD) in medical terminology. People with alcoholism may consume excessive amounts of alcohol on a regular basis, leading to physical and psychological dependence. Symptoms of alcoholism can vary widely and may include tolerance, which is needing to drink more to achieve the same effect, withdrawal symptoms when not drinking, neglect of responsibilities or relationships due to drinking, and unsuccessful attempts to cut down or stop drinking. Alcoholism can have serious health, social, and economic consequences, but with appropriate treatment and support, recovery is possible.
