Drug Rehabilitation that works

Question by SeaSquirt: Psychologists: What is it like to work with alcoholics?
I just got accepted to a grad program to study the temperamental, family, and environmental factors in children that lead to alcoholism in adolescents. I assume this means my clinical experiences will have a heavy emphasis on alcohol dependency.

I was just wondering what it’s like to work with alcoholics. What are they like as clients? Is it difficult/challenging? Rewarding?
Do they ever get violent or get in rages when they’re going through dry spells?
