ADDICTIONS AND ITS CONSEQUENCES



An addiction is when you like something so much and you can´t control using it. It is a very simple definition, so let´s see some cases of addictions and I´m sure that after see them, you will know what an addiction is


ALCOHOLISM: When you have problems with alcohol

If a person is alcoholic, it means that he/she has serious problems with alcohol. Alcoholism is a illness that consists in that the person who is alcoholic depends on the alcohol and when he/she doesn´t drink, he get angry and bad educated. But not only the person who is alcoholic get angry or is bad educated, he/she can also does the following things:

  • They leave work to drink
  • They didn´t eat very well
  • They could be violent with the people

ADDICTION TO GAMBLING: When you can´t stop playing games, specially in casinos.

If a person is addicted to gambling, this person can´t stop playing games. You can play games and it could be funny but you have to control yourself and put a limit. Some people don´t put a limit and they play games for a long time. Some problems of this kind of addiction are:

  • The person can lose all his/her money because of playing games without limit
  • Like alcoholism, he could be violent if he stop playing
  • If you lose some money, you continue playing to recover the money
  • The man/woman do anything to earn money for bet

In conclusion, if you like something so much, enjoy it with moderation because if you 
don´t control yourself, who will control you? Be considerate!!
