Question

A twenty-year old boy, Reshu has become addicted to alcohol.

Mention any two possible reasons for his alcohol addiction.

Answer 1

1. Peer pressure/social gatherings: At this age, friends and social groups can influence a person to drink for fun or to “fit in”. Repeated use in these situations can gradually develop into a habit and eventually lead to addiction.
2. To relieve stress or disappointments: He may start consuming alcohol to reduce mental tension, anxiety, sadness, or frustration. If he begins to depend on alcohol for temporary relief again and again, it can lead to addiction.
