Although I am not very educated statistically on alcoholism, I have been affected immensely by it. It runs through part of my family at which I may be at risk, or even my brothers. I know a lot about how it can tear a family apart and destroy lives; I have lived through it. It started at a very young age for me, an age I would never want anyone to have to go through. I actually would prefer no one having to go through this at any point in their lives.
For the most part, the interest on alcohol starts in your teens. You want to experiment with things, and what better way to experiment new things than on the ones that your really not suppose to put your hands on? Once you get into it whether you’re legal or not, most people seem to enjoy the feeling it gives off. You start to relax, let things go, get your mind off things till later and have more fun; not to mention it tastes really good.
But all these great feelings and such could really blow up in your face. You may take it too far and drink yourself to oblivion all the time, you may become angry, your thinking and decision making goes down the toilet. A lot of things can back fire with this addicting drug that can spiral out of control and cause chaos to you and someone else’s lives.
This blog is nowhere near its final stages for I have a lot of research ahead of myself. Nor will it all be on my experiences. I will for sure add my two cents from personal experience because that’s what keeps things interesting for others; to know the narrator is passionate about something; and I am very passionate on this subject because it involves the people I love.

Well done, a very passionate post. I look forward to reading more about this topic.
I agree with you, alcohol can be fun, but it can also be very dangerous. You seem very passionate about this topic. It is hard not to be passionate when you have family members with the disease. Thank you for sharing such a personal story.
A daring topic. Thanks for bringing it to the blog. I look forward to reading more blogs and hope that maybe your words can help someone out there.
