The causes and risk factors of alcohol addiction are diverse and complex. There are both genetic and environmental factors that can influence a person's risk of developing alcohol problems. Genetic factors: Studies have shown that there may be a genetic predisposition to alcohol addiction. People whose family members are addicted to alcohol are at higher risk of developing problems with alcohol themselves. Mental illnesses such as depression or anxiety disorders can increase the risk of alcohol abuse. People who try to cope with their mental health problems by drinking alcohol are at risk of becoming addicted. The social context also plays an important role in the development of alcohol problems. Stress at work, family conflicts or peer pressure can lead to people turning to alcohol more often. Other risk factors include early onset of alcohol consumption in adolescence, an impulsive personality profile and low self-esteem.
