Is My Father A Drunk?

   My father also always drank. Before and harder alcohol, and now he is over 70 and drinks 1-2 liters of beer every day, morning, noon and evening. He developed cirrhosis and was hospitalized several times, but did not stop drinking. For him, beer is not alcohol. Separately, he has always had a cursed character, I don't know if it's from alcohol or it's just that. Rejoice that yours is peaceful and does not cause problems. I don't know how to help an alcoholic who thinks he has no problem.

   Drinking is a type of addiction. Once the body gets used to it, it becomes easily addictive, and gradually raises the doses. Why ask strangers what to do when you haven't tried the first step to solving the problem? Tell him, immediately, that gradually drinking will kill him. You don't write how old he is, but if you're 20, then he's still a young man, he shouldn't kill his life. Warn him more seriously, then it will weigh on your conscience that you have not taken action. And if he doesn't listen to you, you will have a clear conscience that you did what you have to do, and he will bear the consequences himself. Drunkenness is suicide, considered a sin!

   Hello. I am now 42 years old and when I was your age, my father was already an alcoholic. Because I have a very bitter experience with it, I can tell you that the symptoms of alcoholism (I hope you don't see them) are a person's constant half-drunk state without being able to do any work. If he cannot maintain his condition with alcohol (ie when there is no alcohol) he begins to tremble, becomes irritable, sometimes even hallucinating, for alcohol he is ready to deal with his relatives. If he continues in such a state for a long time (a state of intoxication), he may die. It still depends on the person. So was my father. Yours may never become an alcoholic, but there is another danger - cirrhosis! My grandfather drank every night at the pub. He got drunk, was oppressed, and finally got cirrhosis at 79. Personally, I think that your father is at greater risk of cirrhosis or heart problems in the future. Well, talk, it's hard I know, but he should be startled too. Good luck.

   If he doesn't do nonsense, it's almost harmless. As long as his liver or something directly related to drinking is not damaged. For a drunkard - in part it can be said to be, but the concept is broad. For example, if she does not go to work and sits with other drinkers all day - then she is a drunkard.

   Yes, she is definitely a drunk / alcoholic. But be glad it doesn't rage. He is a great man, he obviously likes it, you have no right to confuse him.

   Hello. My father is the biggest drunk, God forbid he dies in my arms, that I will get some disease. When he dies, you will find out which city he was in, because I will arrange for him to be sent to the afterlife with songs. Of the attractive ones. I won't notice a big deal that will be mentioned

   Dear author, your father is not a drunkard. Your father is an alcoholic. This is a disease, the person needs help. If you want to help him, start reading about this disease, because the support of the family, if he decides to be treated, will be of great importance.
