While there are numerous signs that can indicate that someone may be abusing alcohol, it is important to remember that not everyone exhibits the same patterns. Alcohol affects people differently. What may be a negative symptom for one person may not necessarily be the same for another.
Research by the Alcohol Alert has concluded that DUI (driving under the influence) offenders with less severe "drinking problem" drinking problems benefit most from educational programs.
Studies by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) have reported that alcoholics have difficulty sleeping and spend less time in the most important phase of sleep known as REM (rapid eye movement).
Alcohol-medication interactions are common among the elderly, increasing the risk of negative health effects of alcohol use and potentially influencing the effectiveness of the medications.
