What is Alcoholism & Drug Abuse?

Alcoholism is an obsession or dependency on alcohol, whereas drug abuse or substance abuse is a dependency on narcotic or hallucinogenic substances like Cocaine, Crack, Heroin, etc. Alcoholism or substance abuse may lead to physiological, psychological, or social dysfunction.

What starts as a means to relax in small doses rapidly becomes dependency because it takes increasingly larger doses of the substance to achieve the same level of relaxation.
