TC>Hello, my father has been sober for over 20 years and my mom
TC>said that he was "slow" when he went to school. When I turned
TC>21 my dad told me that I had to be especially careful when I
TC>drank alcohol because I could easily become an alcoholic. I was
TC>very surprised when I found out that my younger sister was an
TC>alcoholic. My younger sister; the one that was as smart as a
TC>whip, confident, outgoing personality; all the things that I
TC>was not. Well, she has been on the "wagon" for several years
TC>now. She doesn't rely on alcohol to relax or feel good. That
TC>makes me happy.
The genetic alcoholic lacks the "normal" amount of some
neurotransmitters. We now know that the production of these can be
stimulated by food supplements as well as other means. It is no longer
necesary to up the adrenalin levels by racing cars or diving out of
airplanes for the alcoholic to feel great.
