What is Alcoholism?
Alcoholism is a chronic, progressive, and often fatal disease. It is a primary disorder and not a symptom of other diseases or emotional problems. The chemistry of alcohol allows it to affect nearly every type of cell in the body, including those in the central nervous system. After prolonged exposure to alcohol, the brain becomes dependent on it. The severity of this disease is influenced by factors such as genetics, psychology, culture, and response to physical pain.
It is a chronic illness marked by dependence on alcohol consumption. It interferes with physical or mental health, and social, family, or job responsibilities. This addiction can lead to liver, circulatory, and neurological problems. Pregnant women who drink alcohol in any amount may harm the fetus.

Students regarding Alcoholism and the conclusion
in FACT's from the survey result that was conducted:
Most of
the student's was drinking Alcoholic beverages occasionally, and it is a
positive outcome for our campus, because it means that there are only few
students who confess that they were addicted on it. Only 3 % in our basis, and
we also concluded that they were much more prefer on low alcohol contents drinks
which is beer and wine. When it comes to reason why they drink is because they
are gaining happiness, it only means that they drink just to have more fun and
there's only few students agreed that drinking can resolve their problems.
In
terms of Health, the student's knew that drinking won't cause any good effect
in their body, which is one of the reasons that make them to avoid drinking too
much. We also concluded that most of them prefer to drink at home or in their friend’s
house, rather than going on bars and nightclub's.
The
number of students who admitted that sometimes they enter the campus at the same
time they were drunk. In our basis 34% and the remaining 66% says they didn't
try to do those acts and don't have plan to do so.
The reason
why they were Drinking is because of the problem and stress that they’re coping
in, maybe because it helps them forget that they have heavy problems, and lastly
we conclude that 30% of the student's says the main reason why they drink is to
have fun with their friends and specially family.
