Question by Drs P: how ong do you have to be drinking to cause the affects of cronic alcohol abuse?
I am 15 and from june until september i was somewhat of an alcoholic. I no longer drink but i am worried about what i may have done to myself in that time. I have read things talking about how long-term alcohol abuse can lead to dementia, depression, antisocial behavior ect. I donlt think that the 4 month period in which a reguarly consumed about 2-3 alcoholic beverages 4-5 times a week, but how long would long term abuse be considered?
