How to Convince an Alcoholic to Get Help: How Do You Deal With a Recovering Alcoholic? Are They Bad at Approaching Girls? Are They Bad News?

Question by Dash: How do you deal with a recovering alcoholic? Are they bad at approaching girls? Are they bad news?
This guy I like is a recovering alcoholic. He doesn’t know I know. He’s been past 2 years sober. He acts like he likes me for the last 9 months. He first started talking to me, complimenting me on my work. He’s very awkward around me and gets shy. He will blow hot and cold. It’s been going on 9 months, and I really am getting frustrated. Can being a recovering alcoholic effect this? He looks at me all the time, like almost too much. He acts like he’s interested, but doesn’t try to start conversations, only says hi, and doesn’t stay to converse. He will go away, then just look at me from a far.

Side Effects of Alcohol Abuse: What’s This Called?

Question by monica_crss: What’s this called?
I know that ‘the shakes’, or delirium tremens, is what happens as a result of withdrawal from alcohol but what’s it called when you drink so much that you start to shake? What is it called if someone’s exhibits DT symptoms from drinking TOO MUCH as opposed to stopping.

Please, don’t bother preaching & trying to pass it off as an ‘answer’.
