What do you think: Is Alcohol Use a Global Public Health Impact?


First of all, it is very important to say there are many people around the world that are addicted to alcohol. The addiction to alcohol is one of the major causes of death in people around the world, either directly, through such things as liver diseases and other organs, and also behavior change; or indirectly through car accidents.
I work every day with people that are doing all things possible to stop using alcohol, but I see how difficult it’s for each person. There are several strategies for facing and resolving this major problem, such as treatment with health staff, medication, family support, treatment in rehabilitation clinic, hospital admission and inpatient in therapeutic communities.
I understand there are three main elements for the successful treatment: personal motivation, a support network (professionals, families and communities), and the determination to change habits.
The addiction to alcohol can affect several areas in people’s lives, such as social, familial, professional, personal and financial, with different impacts and consequences.
I believe everyone should know more about the effects of alcohol so after they reflect on the use and abuse, and they can make informed decision.
