Drug Addiction: A Telling Sign of Alcoholism and Drug Addiction
If you want to know if you or a loved-one is indeed an alcoholic or drug addict – it’s important that you know what the drug addiction signs and alcoholism symptoms are.

Most people think alcoholism or drug addiction is a function of how much you drink or how often you use drugs. I don’t think that’s the case however.
It will of course be obvious to you at certain times that a person is suffering from alcoholism or drug addiction. A drug addict for example will be so advanced in their addiction that their life simply revolves around their habit and doing anything else is almost impossible.
