The classic picture of an alcoholic is a homeless wino... or someone who drinks all the time...and who's life is falling apart...but not all alcoholics fit this mould...some people seem to be just fine while they abuse alcohol...these people are known as functioning alcoholics...you can still be an alcoholic even though you have a great outside life...with a job that pays well...a home...a family...friendships and social bonds...one of the main reasons that alcoholics seek help is because of the pain and embarrassment gets bad enough they can no longer deny their drinking problem needs attention...functional alcoholics don't see they have a problem 😔🙏🏻❤️
