Use- drinking alcohol at all. To drink it means you are using it. Hopefully you are doing this mildly.
Abuse- drinking alcohol until you puke. Not keeping it in a social context.
Dependency- can't live without it.....literally. Your body becomes dependent on having it and goes through withdrawal when you abstain from it.

alcohol use can be just social drinking....abuse is when you drink to "get drunk"...dependency is when you feel as if you can't function with out it....

Use is having one drink.
Abuse is needing more than one drink.
Dependency is needing nothing more than alcohol.
