I have a project, and the story is about a guy who gets murdered for trying to stop a bar fight (he was killed by an alcoholic.). We are supposed to pick a song that goes along with our project. is there any songs out there about stuff like this or about alcoholism. Any suggestions? Thanks

im having to work in a group to create an ad for alcoholism type thing and a group member came up with " hit the bottle, then kick the bucket" is this a good slogan? im top of my class and i dont want to sacrafice my grade for his feelings so if you dont like it tell me, personally i hate it..... also any ideas of a good slogan?

My question is prompted by a phenomenon among very holy people within the Catholic Church referred to as ' the color of sanctity.' It seems to be an unmistakably accurate designation. Observing this quality in an individual is both moving and inspiring. Among clergy one might stretch the imagination to attribute the phenomen to overmuch wine. But occasionally it is also seen among Protestant devouts who do not use wine in their ritual. In pondering the anomaly, I have considered physical effects of complete chastity. Yet, Protestant ministers are not under this obligation. Too, some of the most striking examples in my experience have been nuns, who, of course, have no opportunity for abusing alcohol. These very fine folk seem literally to glow from within, and invariably command deep respect and wonder. The Best Answer to this question seems to bar a medical explanation. The skin quality of these individuals in typically smooth and Dresden-like.

I can't manage a single night without getting drunk, even if i'm alone (especially if i'm alone!) I just need to feel that way to be happy The longest I can go without drinking is 3 nights Am I an alcoholic?!?!??!!?

were doing a PSA on alcoholism and you know like we have pictures and facts and stuff but i need a sad song to go with it that makes sense with thte topic.....if someone could help thatd be great thanks a lot=D

1. Fact or fiction: alcohol dependency and alcohol abuse mean the same thing. 2. Fact or fiction: alcoholics are born addicted to alcohol. 3. Fact or fiction: alcoholism can cause a variety of physical and psychological problems in an individual Please give detailed answers

I forgot the title. Both my parents had alcoholic fathers, though my parents were not alcoholics themselves, they still carried some of the dysfunction (for example distant father, depressed mother that acted like she was her children's daughter)... and I'm trying to find that book that talks about breaking that alcoholism behavior cycle...

can anyone tell me what is the format of my research paper if it is about alcoholism. thank you!

Both my parents are functioning alcoholics. My father has been since long before I was born and my mother has been for the past decade or two. I do not drink (except occcasionaly with friends) and I am determined not to become a drunk like my parents. But I always wander if it could run in our family and be something me and my children have to be extra cautious about not falling into. Ummm Theo if you read my info properly you would have seen that I do not have a problem with alcohol myself. I am not trying to blame my problems on someone else or find an excuse to drink! I am asking this question because I am curious about if it can have a genetic link. Like I mentioned I have children and of course I will do everything in my power to help them live a good life and make wise choices I can not help but worry that they may become addicted faster to the drink then most people due to some sort of genetic tendancy. I will not be around forever to take care of them.

a foster sister of mine died of this Monday and she was only 48. I asked my foster mom if she was an alcoholic and she didn't answer me, not that it matters, I'm in recovery... I just wondered. I didn't know her that well, she went to live with my foster parents after I had graduated and moved on. But 48, it's still so sad.

Also the gambling incuded in the list ( Innal khamru wal maisiru wal ansaabu wal azlaamu , rijsum min AMALIS SHITAANU, FAJTANIBOOHU...). Magic too is illegal Old & New Testaments new testaments don't have such GOOD verses at all. Did you know ? Should not such evil crreatiing things be abolished ? Interest of money exploites poor indiscriminately by money lenders. It must not be equated with inflation as both are totally different things. Deserting a family of poor is INHUMAN. If there is an inflation, that is the EVIL of economic system, NOT a STANDARD PARAMETER of economy. Generally, stock brokers or economists in general, DELIBERSATELY keep inflation ARTIFICIALLY even if that must be zero. That is treachery, NOT principled stand & a standard procedure of economic system. A good economist must be highly principled, God fearing & greatly HUMANETARIAN too. Only amassing money by businessman is NO AT ALL good economic set up. Is deserting people by exploitation of money lending or any other means NOT an evil ? DOES NOT a poor man have right to survive with honour ?

what is the effects on the brain of alcoholism (long term drinking of too much alcohol).

My father and uncle are raging alcoholics.. they aren't abusive(any more) but they've done a lot of wrong things in the past. I love my dad to death and have forgiven him for all the wrong doings he has done, but my uncles children haven't (so he has a chip on his shoulder). I know that they both believe in God though they don't go to church..I feel that they have a horrible disease and they think they can't function with out alcohol... I mean they drink beer 24/7, and smoke.. I'm just worried that if my Dad were to die, would god look at this as a disease.. and let him into heaven? I don't tell my dad he has a disease.. and it's what I have to see every day..so try being in my shoes for a few days? If I told my dad he had a disease then yes he may use that as an excuse, I try to talk to him and tell him to stop but nothing works.. what else am I suppose to consider this..it's a disease mixed with a dependency other wise known as an addiction.

What are the factors why college students became alcoholic? What are the negative effects of alcoholism to them?

they say if you drink alone the that is a sign, but I like to open a bottle of red wine and have a glass or sometimes 2 or 3 while I eat dinner and watch a movie by myself. Why must someone be with me in the room if I am still going to drink the same amount if they are there or not for it to be acceptable?

I read a statistic years ago that alcoholism was 3 to 4 times greater in the USSR than in capitalist countries like the United States. Apparently, since the Soviet Union collpased, not much has changed in Russia when it comes to major drinking habits. Why is this true? What causes socialist/communist countries to have higher alcohol rates than capitalist countries?

I really don't see how it can be classified as a disease. It has the criteria to be an official disease, but I see it as an addiction. People who are addicted to alcohol suffer from alcoholism. But how come people who are addicted to cigarettes aren't given the label of suffering from a disease? Same thing with any other drug. Meth too. I could be addicted to meth alot more than someone addicted to alcohol, and yet I wouldn't be suffering from a disease. Doesn't make sense. It seems more like a choice. I'll read excerpts from books and some say that they don't have a choice to stop drinking. But I think they do. No one forced my mom to go to bars every night after work and get shit-drunk, and not come home for days at a time. No one took a beer can a shoved it into her mouth forcing her to drink. I know that alcoholism can run in families, but I don't want to say genetic because I'm not sure whether or not it has been proven. But everyone on my mom's side are alcoholics, and my great aunt (my mom's aunt) who participated in the olympics is drinking herself to death. My father is an alcoholic too. He got help once or twice and when we moved out of state he just stopped drinking. But I remember when me and my older sister was little he would hit us hard with the belt if we pissed him off. He wasn't drunk every time he did it, but I know people who drink tend to be alot more aggressive than people who don't. But he had the choice to grab a beer for the last time, and he left it alone. I'm 17 now, and I suffer from depression and I take medication for it and anxiety. I constantly pick my skin. Lately I've moved to the dry skin on the sides of my fingernails and my middle fingers are really sore because I made them bleed. The cuticles are completely gone too. When my mom started drinking heavily and staying out all night (I was 10) I would pull out my hair and eventually got a bald spot, and when the hair started to grow back I would pluck it back out. Could these have anything to do with my opinion on alcoholism? I really want to understand. I've been living with it my whole life and I just want to understand it before I make a wrong decision when I'm older. I don't want the life my mom has now.
