'''Alcoholism''' (Hopperism)(rel. [[drug abuse]]) is a behavioural and or chemical [[addiction]] to either or both the ''consumption of'' or the ''[[inebriation|inebriating]] effects of'' [[alcohol]].
Whereas "addiction" is defined as ''"compulsive drug use despite negative consequences"''and drinking 2 litres of cider everyday (see max hopper) ([[American Journal of Psychiatry|AJP]] 2005), alcoholism is the continued abuse of alcohol regardless of the detrimental consequences to the [[health]] of mind or body.
Alcoholism is a multifactorial condition which has been controversially associated with both [[genetic causality|genetic]] and [[environmental causality|environmental factors]], in addition to behavioural aspects such as [[habit]], [[compulsion]], and self-destructive behaviour.
