Incorrect. It works the other way around. The more you drink the more you need. Liver function has nothing to do with how drunk you get. It's the same way for any other drug. Tolerance builds up with constant and increased use.
Only for awhile. THEN their tolerance super decreases. GENERALLY, maybe not ALL.
If, after confronting her husband, he still doesn't acknowledge how serious this is, she should leave him. They hide this stuff everywhere, the closet, garage, trunk of the car, in the fireplace, etc. I can't stand alcoholics. I don't feel pity for their predicament either. It's not a disease--it's sin. Once an addict repents and feels personal sorrow for what their choices have done themselves (and others), then healing can take place (spiritually and possibly physically). They'll make all the excuses in the world..."so and so left me, I had a bad childhood, etc., so I deserve to get drunk." Stupid. Disrespectful of their bodies which should be a vessel for the Holy Spirit.
God forgives though. There's always hope in that. But, if her spouse will not acknowledge this, she should leave.
The OP, nor anyone here, actually knows what's going on with her husband at this time.
The Sin Forum is <----- back thataway. You might revisit that judgment thing on your way over there, too.
Its not a drug, has no narcotic.
Its actually nutricious for the non alcoholic.
Ever see anyone with a crack belly?
It does not damage anyone, some people damage themselves with it.
Um, no that is not right. It is a drug and a non-alcoholic can get addicted. Easier to quit than an alcoholic, as you talked about the difference in another post, but still it is habit forming and people build a tolerance and need more and more for the same effect.
I'm 5'8 at around 160 and very muscular, a moderate to social drinker and four beers would make me REALLY buzzed (assuming this is over a couple of hours and not six hours with little to no food).
I had a girlfriend that I am no longer friends with who would get absolutely WASTED over three or four drinks. Very loud, obnoxious, hanging on people, squealing, tall, muscular, about 150 at 5'9. I'm not talking buzzed but beyond that.
Turns out it was Xanex along with the drinking and sleeping pills.
Check the medicine cabinet.
Edited because I thought you said your DAD not your husband.
