Open Question: How do you honestly feel about alcoholics…?
In your heart of hearts, do you believe that alcoholism is a disease or character weakness/flaw? When you hear that someone is a recovering alcoholic, what really comes to mind in terms of how you feel about this person, I mean like assumptions (whether positive or negative).
How do you feel about someone that can be a “functional” alcoholic whereby they maintain a good family life, stable employment, highly productive employee, good & honest citizen but has an addiction where one has to drink to a point of proper intoxication every night with vodka or scotch (non-violent, never drives whilst under the influence, etc.)?
Do you feel differently depending on the gender of the individual? When you hear the word “alcoholic,” do you instantly picture a man or a woman in your mind?
