I'm 24 male. I guess when in college I drank maybee 3 times 1 of which I got stone drunk. I don't understand how people become alcoholics. I mean when I got drunk once. It wasen't like I wanted to go and seek the alcohol again to feel that same effect. It didnt' seem the alcohol was addictive. How do people become alcoholics.

Some people have addictive personalities. Some people are self-destructive. Genetics often play into this. In college, I found that the majority of heavy drinkers were simply self-destructive personality types. They would never admit it, but you could see it in other aspects of their lives such as studies, personal relationships, jobs, etc.
I'm with you. I'm 45 and have over drank twice---once in college (I'm a quick learner) and once at a party 10 years later.

Some people, like me haha drink cause it makes your more loose you know. Like its easier to talk to strangers when drunk and you are less self concious so its easier to have a good time. So of course they get addicted cause they eventually get to the point where they dont think they can be in a social situation without having a few drink. It really allows you to fit into a situation you might be uncomfortable in when sober. Then on the other hand some peopel use it to forget their problems, soon enough any problem will cause them to go for the bottle nomatter how small and mab even have a few drinks in case of a bad day.

It's a lifestyle and developed over a period of time. Many people are able to drink on occasion and have no desire for alcohol in between. Others try to keep up w/ the crowd they hang out with. By continually drinking it can lead to an addiction to attain a certain feeling.

Usually it has something to do with woman , a broken heart, lost salt shakers, many beers every day for a few decades.
Avoid it as long as you can. When you are old maybe get a wine cellar and learn to appreciate it in moderation, whne you get to be 90 and have cancer or somthing, then drink up that wine cellar.

People drink just to get drunk, This way when your drunk your not really yourself and in a way thats what they want, not to be able to think about things that are bothering them. Its an escape.

they like the feeling and sense of "taking them away from there problems" its a temporary solution for problems, and people have addictive personalities. It can be a coping mechanism, Or they just like being drunk.

It's the same way people get addicted to pain killers. They try it, like it, continue to do it a lot, then when they try to stop they go through withdrawls so they keep doing it.
