Cause and Effect

Causes of Alcoholism
Alcoholism is a disease that affects many people.  It not only affects the alcoholic, but also their family, and friends.  The symptoms are many, as are the causes and the effects.  
	Alcoholism is defined as an addiction to alcohol.  Harmful consequences may result for the alcoholic, yet he continues to drink.  The symptoms of alcoholism vary from person to person.  The most common symptoms are changes in emotional state or stability, behavior, and personality.  "Alcoholics may become angry and argumentative, or quiet and withdrawn or depressed.  They may also feel more anxious, sad, tense, and confused.  They then seek relief by drinking more" (Gitlow 175).
	"Because time and amount of drinking are uncontrollable, the alcoholic is likely to engage in such behaviors as [1] breaking family commitments; [2] spending more money then planned; [3] drinking while intoxicated and getting arrested; [4] making inappropriate remarks to friends, family, and co-workers; and [5] arguing, fighting, and other anti-social actions.  The alcoholic would probably neither do such things, nor approve of them in others unless he was drinking" (Johnson 203).
	The cause of alcoholism is a combination of biological, psychological, and cultural factors.
