While there are numerous signs that can indicate that someone may be abusing alcohol, it is important to remember that not everyone exhibits the same patterns. Alcohol affects people differently. What may be a negative symptom for one person may not necessarily be the same for another.
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome rates among American Indians are 3.0 per 1000 live births compared to a rate of 0.6 per 1000 live births among Blacks and 0.1 per 1000 live births among Whites.
Alcohol abuse was a primary factor in 55% of the cases of acquaintance rapes on college campuses throughout the United States during 2010.
A blackout is an amnesia-like period that is often associated with drinking. A person may be functioning normally, but later, the person has no memory of occurrences. During a blackout, an individual can participate in a significant, emotionally charged event but have no recollection of what occurred. When blood alcohol levels rise slowly, people are less likely to experience blackouts, even if they eventually become intoxicated.
