In the United States today, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is reported to be the third most common cause that is related to cases of mental retardation.
In colonial America, drunks were sometimes put in stationary or mobile stocks.
The main difference between alcoholism (pathological alcohol dependence) and willful alcohol abuse is whether a person can stop drinking at will; if they cannot, then there is "impaired control" over their alcohol use, which is the primary indicator of an alcohol addiction.
Over time, excessive alcohol use can lead to the development of chronic diseases, neurological impairments and social problems. These include but are not limited to: Gastrointestinal problems, including pancreatitis and gastritis.
