The first step is recognizing and accepting you have a problem with alcohol,but that is just the first step.Alcoholism is a serious illness that can lead to insanity or death.There is a lot of help out there for someone who wants to stop.The second step is accepting the fact that you need help to stop,and seek that help.If you could stop on your own power you would have done so already.Alcoholics Anonymous is in most local phonebooks,and online ,that would be a good place to start.It is free to attend and local groups will even send someone to talk to you if you like.There are many other organizations only to willing to help,contact your local hospital or clinic for what is available in your area.

What is the difference between an alcoholic and a non-alcoholic?

The answer is that a non-alcoholic given a substantial reason (i.e.- spouse, kids, job, probation, health) , can and will stop drinking and not start again. Certain text-books describe three different types of drinkers. The problem drinker is described as a person that, when drinking, experiences difficulties they would not have if they were not drinking. The next type of drinker is a "hard drinker" who may consume a large volume of alcohol on a regular basis but given a sufficient reason to cease drinking will stop. The real alcoholic will continue drinking regardless of the what is at stake in regards to financial security, personal relationships, or his/her own health.
