What is Alcohol Dependence?

Alcohol dependence is a chronic disease that affects the brain and body. It is characterized by an inability to control alcohol use, despite negative consequences. People with alcohol dependence may continue to drink even when it causes problems in their relationships, work, or health.

There are many factors that can contribute to alcohol dependence, including genetics, personality traits, and environmental factors. However, the most common cause of alcohol dependence is repeated alcohol use. Over time, alcohol use can change the way the brain functions, making it more difficult to control drinking.
