Many alcoholics will deny that they have a drinking problem whatsoever. Alcoholics can come up with a number of excuses to justify their drinking, i.e. blaming it on work, stress or a relationship. Their denial can be so powerful that they simply cannot see how much their drinking is causing negative consequences in their life.
According to a study that was conducted by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), alcohol consumption can induce sleep disorders by disrupting the sequence and duration of sleep states and by altering total sleep time as well as the time that is required to fall asleep.
Teens who consume alcohol are more than twice as likely to have had sexual intercourse within the past three months than teens who don't consume alcohol.
"Blackouts", are not diagnostic of alcohol dependence; they are memory lapses caused by heavy drinking, where the individual does not pass out, but appears to act relatively normal during drinking.
