Excessive drinking is defined as consuming 13 or more drinks a week, which can lead to alcoholism characterized by the inability to stop once started, leading to dysfunction and impaired behavior. Consuming six drinks a week increases a woman's risk of breast cancer by 40%, and up to 10 drinks increases the risk by 70%. Research shows that abstaining from alcohol for 30 days can lead to improved health outcomes, including longer life, healthier kidneys, reversal of arterial sclerosis, increased energy, and weight loss. Addictions often serve as a means to numb anxiety, pain, trauma, and discomfort in social situations.
