Question by Kobe: If a person has 5 to 6 drinks a day is it considered alcohol abuse or alcoholism?
I personally don’t think it’s that bad even though it’s more than the recommended limit. As long as the people are not drinking and driving or drinking at work I don’t see why 5 or 6 drinks per day is bad considering that most alcoholics probably have at least a 12 pack per day. What do you think?
instead of “or” I should have put a slash /

Is alcoholism considered a disability by law?

Question by <3: Is alcoholism considered a disability by law?
Someone I know had an employee who showed up at work drunk. It would make sense to fire them. He was told he could not fire the employee since there was a possibility the employee was an alcoholic and alcoholism is a disability you cannot be fired over.

Thoughts?

Why is alcoholism considered a disease?

ALCOHOLISM ADDICTION 12 Comments »

why? i never really understood this. alcoholism is, by official definition, “a physical and emotional addiction to alcohol”. howis that a disease? its an addiction. does that mean all addictions are diseases? everything you put into your body can change your mental state and change your brain. addiction to chocolate has been proven to change your brain, so is that a disease as well?
please explain!
my mom doesnt believe it is a disease. she believes that its simply and addiction, that can be given up if one learns self control.
so…do you believe is it a disease, and if you believe it is a disease, why is it considered a disease?
