Alcoholism!
Alcoholism is a chronic disease that makes your body dependent on alcohol. It's possible to have a problem with alcohol, but not display all the characteristics of alcoholism. This is known as "alcohol abuse," which means you engage in excessive drinking that causes health or social problems, but you aren't dependent on alcohol and haven't fully lost control over the use of alcohol. Although many people assume otherwise, alcoholism is a treatable disease. Medications, counseling and self-help groups are among the therapies that can provide ongoing support to help you recover from Alcohol.
It is estimated that 9% of the general population is predisposed to alcoholism based on genetic factors.
Alcohol and drug use can not only impair your ability to function now, it can have long-range negative effects on your health and well-being.
Most teenagers who drink alcohol at parties play games like beer pong or do a beer bong, maybe even do keg stands. Alcohol games like these and others are dangerous because they make you get drunk faster in a shorter period of time. This is the main reason for teenagers getting alcohol poisioning.
