Is alcohol addiction physical or mental or both usually?!


Question: "alcoholism is an obsession of the mind coupled with an allergy of the body" (Big book of Alcoholics Anonymous)

Ever see someone have d-t's? (delirium tremens)
AKA the shakes, see the pink elephants etc???

Ever see a skid row bum panhandle for their next bottle?

Ever hear of a successful star get sober, only to go back to the bottle time after time (even after putting together significant amounts of sobriety)

These are all easily provable evidence that it is indeed BOTH!!!!!!!

Both. You can get withdrawal symptoms if alcohol is used too frequently, and it's psychologically addicting as well.

both...I would say more Mental than physical

It's metal problems. But withdrawl is physical and mental.

BOTH.

Both since it destroys both the mind and the liver.
