Answer by docjp
The primary psychological causal for alcoholism is an intense fear of oneself, taken-on in early childhood and deeply repressed within ones MIND realm.

This fear is unfortunately communicated to the MINDs of individuals around such a person… if they are vulnerable to these “vibrations”. This phenomenon is what causes what is called the “enabler” syndrome.
