Japanese: アルコール精神病 - あるこーるせいしんびょう

...This is based on the WHO Expert Committee's proposal that when a person continues to drink ethyl alcohol contained in alcoholic beverages and exceeds the normal amount or continues to drink abnormally (alcohol abuse), he or she will be unable to stop drinking alcoholic beverages. This is thought to be due to a biological change different from acute poisoning, so it should be called dependence, which is different from the symptoms of intoxication. Therefore, mental and physical disorders caused by alcohol drinking are broadly divided into acute alcohol poisoning and alcohol dependence, and alcohol psychosis is said to occur based on alcohol dependence. On the other hand, the term "alcohol-related problems" has been proposed for broad social problems related to alcohol drinking, that is, areas that go beyond medical problems and include welfare and social policies, including work absenteeism and drunk driving. ...
