Top 5 Reasons Why Alcohol is the Worst of Drugs

A pair of glasses of "fiery water" can improve digestion, calm the nerves, relieve shyness and tightness. However, it’s worth a little busting and alcohol becomes an open portal to our nightmares.

Here are 5 reasons why alcohol can be the worst of all drugs.

If this disaster has not passed you by, read our list of the most effective anti-alcohol drugs. Folk and anti-drinking drugs.

5. Alcohol causes the greatest harm.

The Great Study (Harvard Grant Study) is one of the longest-running case studies of adult development. Since 1938, Harvard researchers tracked the lives of 268 junior students who reported their emotional and physical well-being.

In 2012, head of the Harvard Grant Study, George Weilant, reported that alcohol was one of the key factors in the lives of the study participants. He was more significant than intelligence, political views, or having rich parents. Alcoholism was the main reason for the divorce of subjects, one of the main triggers for neurosis and depression (while alcohol abuse began even before mental problems), and is associated with smoking as one big contribution to the early descent to the grave.

4. Alcohol is the worst enemy of public safety.

What drug is considered the most dangerous in the world? According to a British study, the correct answer is alcohol. In 2010, The Lancet, a reputable medical journal, published a study on the dangers posed by 20 available drugs.

It was conducted under the supervision of a psychiatrist and neuropsychopharmacologist David Nutt. While heroin, crack, meth and amphetamine took first place in terms of the danger they pose to individual users, one drug was the most harmful to society as a whole. Drinking alcohol doubled the chances of harming other people compared to cocaine. Of the possible 100 points on the scale of danger, alcohol got 45 (in second place is heroin, he has 20 points).

3. Alcohol kills more people than any other drug

High mortality from alcohol is among the top 3 reasons why alcohol can be the worst of all drugs. Stories about new and very dangerous drugs often appear in the media. In September 2015, information appeared that the synthetic drug K-2 supposedly turns people into naked, immune to pain zombies. However, in such stories it is hushed up that we already have an easily accessible, deadly drug.

According to WHO data from 2014, Russia accounts for 500 thousand deaths associated with alcohol abuse. And about 8 thousand people die every year from other types of drugs in Russia. If we are horrified by the relatively small number of deaths from Spice, heroin and other narcotic abominations, ignoring the much greater danger, then it is time to ask ourselves: what is going wrong?

2. Alcohol and child abuse

One of the leaders of anti-rating of the worst consequences of alcohol. The unsightly truth of life is that some drunken adults beat, rape, and morally humiliate children. Children with one or two alcoholic parents more often than their peers find themselves in unbearable living conditions, have a reduced body weight, and suffer from physical and mental illnesses.

Of course, a terrible childhood is a misfortune not only for children of alcoholics, but also for those with a mom or dad addicted to gambling, heroin, etc. But the fact is that these activities are either completely prohibited or reasonably limited. Alcohol is completely intertwined with Western and European culture and its consumption is actively encouraged.

1. Alcohol is the misfortune of our culture

According to anthropologist Anne Fox, alcohol is not a cause of violence. Otherwise, we would see uniform levels of violence in all drinking countries. Fox believes: our culture teaches how to behave drunk people. In various films, television shows and books, drinking is shown as something that ordinary people do regularly.

At the same time, we are learning to identify drinking with aggression and a lack of self-control. The result is a powder keg of all the worst possible outcomes.
