Return To Addiction FAQ Archive   How are alcoholism and drug addictions different? Answered By Editor Alcoholism and drug addictions differ only in the type of substance abused. Alcohol is an addictive drug that comes in a liquid form, while other drugs generally come in a powder form. Regardless, both are stimulants and can cause similar addictive behaviors. Alcoholics and drug addicts both suffer from a dependence, tolerance and obsession with these mind-altering substances. Both are progressive diseases and both are treatable through abstinence and rehabilitative treatment. keywords: Addiction | Drugs | Drug Abuse | Alcoholism | Drug Addictions | Stimulants | Substance Abuse | Rehab Alcoholism Information Alcholism Alcohol Help Alcohol Problems
