The ancient Macedonians were well known among the Greeks for their
excessive drinking habits. One historian's theory states that Alexander
the Great likely suffered from alcoholism because of feelings
of personal inadequacy. Many people are affected today with similar
problems, and even the
best DUI lawyers and therapists realize that it is imperative they
receive treatment before they succumb to alcoholism.
