Robert Nixon used to consume alcoholic drinks once in a while. Slowly, he started to drink each day more and things got worse. His behavior was becoming unpredictable. He tells of one incident in a club on a Sunday afternoon when a fight broke out and he and his friends were involved. Minutes later he was outside being questioned by the police and spent several hours at the police station. He was released but in spite of this, the next day he was drinking at his favorite bar again. What kind of person goes everyday desperate for a drink everyday?. Now he is alone, a desperate alcoholic.

The difference between a habit and an alcoholic is that the habit is a thing that you make every day and with the passing of the time, this thing becomes in a routine good or bad, but if you want you can leave this habit and change. The alcoholic is different to the habit because when you are an alcoholic you practice this addiction every time, your body be spoiled and is very difficult try to leave of this addiction.
ResponderEliminarThe addictions that are most socially acceptable than others are smoking, drinking, excessive play, watch very much the TV and have an obsession with the internet and the less socially acceptable are sexual addiction, pornography and drug use, because the first addictions are less shameful and the people it looks normal, perhaps because the people have family with the same problem and the seconds addictions are less socially acceptable because are banned and most shameful that the others.
I think that there are certain types of personality who are more likely to become addicts because they maybe have more problems with her family, friends and different people and they feel terrible. They maybe seek different options for relaxed and these options are the addictions.
The solutions that family, friends, co-workers or partners should take for an addicted are:
First try to talk with them about the problem and try to view the addiction as your enemy, try to change their routine of every day and make different things.
Second you should go out more with them, play together, watch movies and try that this people forget her obsessions.
And finally this people should go with a psychologist or specialist and in these places they can meet people that had the same problem and they can talk about different solutions about their addictions.
I think the difference is that a habit is something you do like any other daily activities as bathing and the habit of alcoholism is something that it needs to be done daily because they see it as something absolutely necessary to have a good day.Some addictions like the alcoholism or smoking are more accepted because they are legal but equally damaging to the person. Yes, depending on the person and his personality can become more vulnerable to having an addiction. I feel that addiction depends on the person, their family or friends can be treated by them or find a specialist. Some addictions need to be treated in a special institution such as alcoholism person and other addictions such as internet, video games, friends and family can give advice as the person leaves the computer to play sports or play in a healthy way, not necessarily we need the technology to have fun.
ResponderEliminarThe difference between habit and addiction is that: the habit is not addictive but the addiction somethings is a little more serious. because if it is bad for the person who suffer. the person in the text transforms into a person not living without alcohol. The type of addiction are most acceptable is a smoking because the person today think this is normal and not bad. I think a person to have addiction is a person to lived into a neigborhood who persons to lived there smoking and drinked alcohol. in the future the children´s go to repeat this attitude in the ppresent. And continue this problem for years.
ResponderEliminarThe family and friends need to help a this person to have a addiction because in te future the person to have this problem suffer more and not is easy to exit this problem.
the person to have this problem needs help of the family and friends. because this person go to continue in this problem for years and goes to death in the future. the friends for this person need to talk to him and explain the problem that him have and go to a doctor to search help.
Robert Nixon is a good example to addiction because him consume alcoholic drinks once in a while. slowly, he startes to drink each day more and things got worse. And he need help fot the friends and family for start a new life...!!!
