Addiction , alcohol and otherwise is far more complex than that. Most people drift into addiction which then creates problems that only the alcohol can placate. It's a vicious circle that spirals out of control. One statistic to bear in mind when you consume alcohol - your liver performs 500 different functions in your body, every drop of alcohol disturbs that organ. 500 different functions!!! |
I think addiction is mostly to do with environment.Many US soldiers in Vietnam had a huge addiction to heroin, and the authorities feared after demob the streets of the US would be awash with returning addicts, but it simply didn't happen as the vast majority taken out of the stressful war environment simply stopped using.
Remove ppl from the drug taking or alcohol environment, try to help them with their problems and don't send them to prison and there's a good chance they will stop |  | | |

With regard to nam, think a very large % of those American soldiers who came back had severe issues with drink, drugs or mental health. Lots could never get it together again after what they saw, divorce and homelessness big time. |  |
