We have actually listened to a number of the free online Alcoholics Anonymous tapes and the sound
quality was surprisingly good.
| Alcoholism, also known as alcohol addiction and alcohol dependence, is a disease
that includes the following four symptoms: 1. Tolerance: the need to drink greater amounts of
alcohol in order to feel a “buzz” or to get “high.” 2. Loss of control: an inability to stop
drinking after the first drink. 3. Craving: having a strong urge or need to drink. 4. Physical
dependence: withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, headaches, nausea, perspiration, and “the shakes”
when abstaining from alcohol. |
| In the second or third stages of alcohol dependency the alcoholic's hands may have
trembled slightly on mornings after getting drunk. In the fourth and final stage of alcohol
addiction, however, alcoholics get "the shakes" whenever they try or are forced to abstain from
drinking. |
