Men do not always blame women. People with drinking or drug habits blame it upon anyone close to them so they have an excuse to consume. or a reason to be unhappy or stressed or angry n they need a drink or whatever.. But what they really need is help

Contact your primary care physician and discuss mixing the two.  Alcohol is a depressant and will adversely affect the person mixing alcohol and psychiatric medications.  Another concern is the possibility of needing medical inpatient detox due to the quantity and duration of the drug use.  This can also be discussed with your primary care physician or the person can be assessed at a psychiatric and/or substance abuse inpatient facility in their area.  The assessment could very well be free.  If an emergency medical condition arises get to an emergency room immediately.  Hope this helps in some way.

Parental neglect, peer pressure, lack of self esteem, lack of motivation, lack of supervision and genetic propensity to addiction.\n\nTeens who use drugs are found in every race and every socio-economic level.

Most professionals would answer yes, IF one meets other criteria.  Obviously quantity of alcohol consumption, frequency, and other deeper psychological factors (what triggers the drinking, impact on relationships, etc).  \nBasically if alcohol is interfering with a "normal" lifestyle (which mind you, is subjective) then you're probably an alcoholic.

The basic things that cause mental health disorders are: Biological predisposition, extreme stressors, drug and alcohol use, abuse, injury, or learned behavior (like cutters).  I  have worked in this field for 12 plus years.

Drinking doesn't directly cause harm to anyone else. True, over indulgence can cause people to make irrational decisions which can be harmful or even deadly, but smoking is ALWAYS dangerous. I have had breathing issues since I was a baby and being around cigarette smoke greatly aggravates that. It's not fair for other peoples health to be constantly compromised because of other's addictions.

i didn't see your first question, but I can say that alcoholism is a disease; and, until the person accepts that they can NOT control their drinking, then their drinking WILL CONTROL THEM. The fellowship of AA does work if the individual is willing to WORK IT.....good luck with your mother and god bless.... Yes, we must forgive, as God so forgives us.....

I heard of one person who had a problem with their liver and couldn't break down alchohol like most people. It stayed in his system much longer.\n\nA hangover is from dehydration. You must be getting enough liquids besides booze to not get it.

Yep, too much alcohol consumption will pickle your liver, cause cirrhosis and in turn cause jaundice. You do have to be a very heavy drinker for a fairly long period of time for this to happen, unless your liver is already compromised and unhealthy.

some people just have very poor tolerance for alcohol, or you may have an allergy to it.

This all depends on the person. Bigger people can consume larger volumes of alcohol. Metabolism also plays a major role.
