What Is the Difference Between Type I and Type 2 Acoholism? (Or Is It Type a & Type B Alcoholism?)?
Question by worldrunner2000: What is the difference between Type I and Type 2 acoholism? (Or is it Type A & Type B alcoholism?)?
I work in the Substance Abuse field and see both problem drinkers (meeting DSM IV criteria for “Abuse”) and addicted individuals (meeting at least 3 of 7 criteria for Dependency). How can I explain types of alcoholism (not problem drinking, i.e. abuse) and the Types to a class to help them better understand themselves?

DISCUSSION on MARINJUANA
Marijuana is a drug found in form of an herb. It’s botanically referred as cannabis sativa.
Marijuana is usually taken through smoking but can also be eaten or steeped in tea.
When smoked marijuana is rolled into a cigarette called a joint or a pipe called a bong.
Marijuana has got many street names example hashish, bhang, cannabis, pot, holy herb etc.
Its availability and low prices in many countries especially in Africa makes it to be usable among the youths and school pupils example the in secondary schools and colleges. Although
Inmost countries it is illegal but unfortunately due to weak law enforcing agent, incompetence, and lack of enough campaigns against the vice.
DISCUSSION
My opinion about it is that it should not be taken and any circumstances and should be discouraged at all levels. Due its wind ranging side effects that are either fatal or may lead to permanent incapacities to the person taking it.
