"Social use" of alcohol consists of an occasional drink in the company of friends: a glass of champagne at a wedding, a cold beer after a softball game, or a glass of fine wine with a meal; social drinking has not been shown to kill brain cells, nor is there any research that indicates that occasionally having an alcoholic beverage adversely affects any major body organ.
Feelings of anxiety associated with alcohol withdrawal have the potential of persisting long after the initial withdrawal symptoms have ceased. It is believed that this anxiety is a driving force behind alcohol-use relapse.
Alcoholism is divided into two broad categories - abuse and dependence.
Twin and adoption studies performed over the past two decades clearly indicate a genetic susceptibility for alcoholism in families; alcohol dependence is not a genetic disease (which suggests destiny); rather, the tendency to become alcoholic is what may be inherited.
