Drinking alcohol is never too bad, but being addicted to alcohol makes everything worse.
Alcoholism can sometimes be hard to realize because one sees nothing wrong with taking alcohol.
Here are 5 warning signs you could be addicted to alcohol;
1. You drink to feel relaxed
This means you are never relaxed when you haven't taken alcohol. Most alcoholics experience withdrawal when they stay days or even hours without drinking.
When you drink to feel relaxed then you are definitely an alcohol addict.
2. You neglect your duties and responsibilities
You are an alcoholic if you have reached a point where you neglect your duties and responsibilities to go out with friends or just alone to drink.
This means alcohol have crossed your line to a point where it affects your day-to-day life.
3. You drink more than you used to
You used to take a 750ml bottle of alcohol a week but now you can take three or four times more than this.
This is an elaborate sign you are sinking deeper into alcoholism and you should find a way to limit yourself until you stop.
4. You don't see anything wrong with it
Taking alcohol is generally an unsafe idea if not for the fun of it. People take alcohol knowing it is actually bad.
But if you have reached a point where you see nothing wrong with drinking then you have successfully grown into an alcoholic.
5. You are unable to quit
People drink and later come to quit although it is never easy. Reaching a point in your life when you can't quit drinking means you have become an addict.
