  • Substance abuse whether it is drugs or alcohol can divide a family by making life in that family miserable for those that have to put up with the substance abuser. Drugs come first with the abuser and they will steal, cheat and lie to get any money they can from their wife, children or relatives. Individuals that are addicted to drugs or alcohol can also commit crimes in some cases to get the money for what they want (this generally happens more with drugs than alcohol.) People on drugs do have brain cell damage eventually and they have no reasoning or no recall of what they are doing to the victim or victims of abuse. Alcoholics can be easy going in their general nature or very physically and verbally abusive if their character was of a miserable nature and it's just intensified by the alcohol. The relationship often ends in a break up or, in some cases the victims of that abuse are too afraid to take action and will put up with the abuse for years. Unfortunately, for those that decide to stay with an extremely physical abuser the end result often ends up to ending the lives of the victim or whole family (victim and children of the abuse.)
