Question by Jessica: What to do with a rude, alcoholic, mother in-law?
To make a very, very long story as short as I can..

My husband and I lived with my mother in-law for about 2 months. I had only met her once before moving down to live with her. One night her and her friend were out back drinking and she decided to come in and wake my husband and I up as if something were wrong “guys come out here i need your help” we knew her and her friend were drunk so my husband told her to hold on and we’d be out.

We walked out on the porch and my husband asked what she wanted.. she responded “well if u dont know what i want then f**k u and the horse u rode in on” i could tell my husband was embarrassed because i have certainly didn’t know this side of her.

What are the Health Effects of Alcohol Consumption?

Short-term effects of alcohol use include:

 

•-          Distorted vision, hearing, and coordination

•-          altered perceptions and emotions

•-          impaired judgment

•-          bad breath; hangovers

 

Alcohol abuse is a pattern of problem drinking that results in health consequences, social, problems, or both. However, alcohol dependence, or alcoholism, refers to a disease that is characterized by abnormal alcohol-seeking behavior that leads to impaired control over drinking.

 

Long Term Effects:

 

Some problems, like those mentioned above, can occur after drinking over a relatively short period of time. But other problems–such as liver disease, heart disease, certain forms of cancer, and pancreatitis–often develop more gradually and may become evident only after long-term heavy drinking. Women may develop alcohol-related health problems after consuming less alcohol than men do over a shorter period of time. Because alcohol affects many organs in the body, long-term heavy drinking puts you at risk for developing serious health problems, some of which are described below.

Watch the full film: thefilmarchived.blogspot.com In this 1955 film, a CIA-funded study examines medical experiments to determine the efficacy of LSD-25 and MER 17 (Frenquel) on treating psychosis. Some studies indicate that certain cannabis strains containing large proportions of THC and low proportions of CBD, may lower the threshold for psychosis, and thus help to trigger full-blown psychosis in some people. Early studies have been criticized for failing to consider other drugs (such as LSD) that the participants may have used before or during the study, as well as other factors such as pre-existing (“comorbid”) mental illness. However, more recent studies with better controls have still found an increase in risk for psychosis in cannabis users. It is not clear whether this is a causal link, and it is possible that cannabis use only increases the chance of psychosis in people already predisposed to it; or that people with developing psychosis use cannabis to provide temporary relief of their mental discomfort. Cannabis use has increased over past few decades but declined in the last decade, whereas the rate of psychosis has not increased. This suggests that a direct causal link is unlikely for all users. Alcohol is also a common risk of causing psychotic disorders or episodes. Research has shown that alcohol abuse causes an 8-fold increase in psychotic disorders in men and a 3 fold increased risk of psychotic disorders in women. Alcoholic psychosis is sometimes …

What are The Key Signs and Symptoms of Alcoholism and Why Does It Affect Me?

Alcoholism is a disease that effects brain chemistry in the body and as such it is far more difficult to give up drinking than many think. Many think that because they only drink beer or wine they aren’t in fact alcoholics or that they only drink at weekends so again they cannot be alcoholic. This is a myth as alcohol is a drug and as with any drug if you abuse its use you will have side effects and alcohol is no different. Drinking wine or beer merely means that you drink more of it and weekend drinking is binge drinking where you consume large quantities in a short period of time. All symptoms of alcohol abuse.
