How can you tell whether you may have a drinking problem? Answering the following four questions can help you find out: Have you ever felt you should cut down on your drinking? Have people annoyed you by criticizing your drinking? Have you ever felt bad or guilty about your drinking? Have you ever had a drink first thing in the morning (as an "eye opener") to steady your nerves or get rid of a hangover? One "yes" answer suggests a possible alcohol problem. If you answered "yes" to more than one question, it is highly likely that a problem exists. Even if you answered "no" to all of the above questions, if you encounter drinking-related problems with your job, relationships, health, or the law, you should seek professional help. The effects of alcohol abuse can be extremely serious-even fatal-both to you and to others.
It will take a person at least one hour to burn up the alcohol in one standard sized drink, unless the person eats a meal while drinking or directly thereafter.
Many people turn to alcohol as a way to reduce anxiety or depression; research conducted by the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) and various other reputable sources has concluded that the consumption of alcohol worsens both of these mental symptoms.
