Alcoholism
While the newspapers in this and other countries are full of articles on the epidemic of drug dependence, the problems of alcoholism, which have been with us for so much longer, evoke relatively little publicity. Yet, since alcoholism affects the middle aged as well as the young and as it is one of the outstanding causes of marital disharmony, broken homes and psychologically disturbed children, it is one of the major health problem of our time.
What is not so well known is that those suffering from alcoholism can make a full recovery, going on to become productive and respectable members of society.
