I am typing this essay to explain something about me and it's not much but overall I’m usually quiet and I didn’t really like to talk and I didn’t really have any friends, when I started high school, I didn’t know how to make friends and I never really was a social person, like I did have friends but only a few friends and I never really talked, when I’m with my family I talk a lot and I would spend lots of time with my family and I was really close to my family like I talked to them and I usually would go see my dad’s side of family, I spent lots of time with them but my grandma was sick so I would go see her and visit her every once awhile because my dad would invite us over like we would watch football with them and we would go to movies with my dad like The Man of Steel and World War Z, including Transformers I spent a lot of time at my grandma’s house but that all changed after a while.
The memory that changed me was when I lost my dad, he was only 36 years old and he was addicted to drinking alcohol and he went to Jail for a few months for drinking and he had a really big problem with drinking, when I was about 11 or 12 he would drink around us and I actually was scared of my dad and I didn’t really think he had a problem with drinking until one day we went to go see

Ever since I was a little girl I have always aspired to follow in my grandfather’s footsteps and become a prosperous attorney like him. He exerted himself strenuously, graduated from Northeastern Law School and was one of the founding partners of the Morrison, Mahoney and Miller Law firm currently located in Boston. It has been an arduous journey for me to verbally express the least endeavoring to follow my grandfather’s legacy. Shortly after graduating high school, my life consummately spiraled out of control and I was faced with adversity that seemed insurmountable. It is paramount to take a moment and apportion some brief history considering that I my past has molded me into the strenuously exertive, goal oriented student I have always aspired to be.

Many adults can enjoy a drink or two from time to time without any issues, but just one drink can cause over seventeen million Americans’ lives to spiral out of control. Though most people do not have issues with drinking alcoholic beverages, many have a condition which causes their brain to function differently when they consume alcohol. This disease can be deadly for both the alcoholic and those around them. Alcoholism can control someone’s life, and even though it is a societal issue that is still being addressed, more people are seeking treatment to better themselves. Alcoholism, excessive consumption of alcohol that results in dependence, is caused by genetics and environmental factors that result in harmful effects on the body of the drinker and the safety of society; however, therapy and support groups are helping alcoholics recover today, and medications undergoing trial could allow them to live normal lives in the future.
‘I only had a couple of drinks.’ Jo tried to count how many drinks. A crusier at home. A champagne. One glass. At the party she’d had another cruiser. Another champagne with cake, maybe two...she could count the drinks up until the cake, after that she wasn’t sure.

Humans have been abusing alcohol almost as long as we have been drinking fermented beverages. Why do people become Alcoholics? What does Alcohol do to the body after prolonged exposure? Is alcoholism a recent phenomenon? Is there anything we can do about it? Alcohol's prolonged impact on the human body is rarely positive. Defining Alcoholism can vary due to the fact that each person's opinion on "how much is too much" differs. However there inevitably comes a point where all people can agree that something is wrong and a person is addicted. For some people, one traumatizing event can cause alcoholism to emerge. From a medical perspective Alcohol does a great amount of damage if one is addicted to the drug. For an unfortunate few the addiction can end in a hideous death. Yet Alcohol is not harmful if it is ingested in moderation, however some people do not have the ability to monitor their drinks. Thus resulting in Alcoholism.
Many people use drinking for different outcomes. Some drink for entertainment and fun with friends, and others use it as a way of escape or to deal with emotions. Mel’s drinking problem isn’t uncommon especially since he started so young.

I understand that, at least for me at the time, drinking was a way of connecting with friends, to socialize with strangers, and to alleviate the shyness. But in hindsight, I noticed there was a change from wanting to needing a drink. It was a way to deal with the tree of work and life itself. Years later now my wife and son are in the picture, I do my best not drink "that much" at home, but still finding a myriad of excuses to do so.
In other survey done in Europe, it was comparably found that the prevalence of alcohol use in motion pictures and binge drinking was 36.6% and 18.1%, respectively. The results demonstrate that German youth are exposed to hours of alcohol use depicted in internationally marketed, primarily American motion pictures and that this exposure is strongly associated with early onset of alcohol use. This study also shows, for the first time, that exposure to movie alcohol use is associated with binge drinking, a problematic drinking behavior. The association between exposure to alcohol use in movies and binge drinking persists after controlling for a number of potential confounders. (Hanewinkel)
Hello beautiful person, my name’s Kylie, and I just can’t wait to meet you! I came into Caring Hands as stray that was extremely underweight. However since being here, I’ve started to gain weight.

I can be cool if you do not drink. Once I was at a wedding with my brother and his friends, and there was alcohol there. All of them told me to drink, but I would not do it. As the wedding went on, and people kept nagging me. When I was about to give in, I saw a guy that I knew, and he had a lot to drink. He was about to drive home, but then I went up to him told him "you have had to much to drink." He said back to me "then how will I get home?" I told him "I will drive you home."

Introduction Teenage years are filled with uncertainty. Intense pressure to perform and succeed is felt by many teenagers. Perceived failure at home and/or school can lead to the need for escape. Teenagers often see their parents react to stress by drinking, thus providing a bad example for them. They also see their favourite movie actors or actresses getting drunk when they go to a movie so they think that it's OK for them to do it but what they don't know is it really hurts them in the long run. The desire to be accepted and popular among their friends encourages many to begin drinking. The ability to consume a lot of alcohol is associated with being a real man or woman. When teens see adults drink heavily and movie stars on screen
An experience I have had with alcohol was the summer of 2016. My sister and I traveled to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to celebrate her graduation from the University of Arizona and my graduation from high school. The legal drinking age in Mexico is 18 and Puerto Vallarta is known for their popular nighttime vibe. I experienced getting drunk for the first time that summer. When I try to recall what exactly happened that summer, I cannot put the pieces together to the memories. What I can remember from those nights is how they start, drinking, and then not being able to remember how I would get home. It was my first experience drinking so naturally I was binge drinking and didn’t know my alcohol limits. Looking back I definitely drank more than I
