Alcohol abuse = "harmful use" of alcohol.
aAlcohol abusers as those who drink despite recurrent social,personal and legal problms due to alcohol use. Harmful use means either physical or mental damage.
and alcohol dependent= alcohol abuse plus some other criteria
i.e drinking only one brand or type of alcoholic beverage.
only going to social events that will include drinking
only hanging out with others who drink
Alcohol tolerance i.e having to drink increasing amounts to achieve previous effects
Withdrawal symptoms
Drinking to relieve or avoid withdrawal
Subjective awareness of the compulsion to drink or craving for alcoho
return to drinking after a period of abstinence
