Alcohol Rehab Johannesburg
When you drink alcohol in excess, your body becomes dependent on alcohol in order to function on a day-to-day basis. This condition is known as alcohol addiction, also known as ‘alcoholism,’ ‘alcoholic,’ or ‘alcohol use disorder,’ and it is characterized by excessive drinking of alcoholic beverages. While having an occasional alcoholic drink can be a harmless pleasure for many people, excessive alcohol consumption can lead to the development of a harmful addiction.
