Alcoholism affects a large segment of the world?s population and is the cause for many devastating occurrences such as DUI/DWI?s, auto accidents, home accidents, violence, deterioration of health, loss of job, family breakdown, etc. The American Medical Association defines alcoholism as, ?A primary, chronic disease with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors influencing its development and manifestations.? Essentially, no matter what the gravity of the slew of reasons may be to stop drinking, the alcoholic is unable to stop.
