This final paper discusses the topic of the connection between alcohol abuse and alcoholism and aggression. Alcohol addiction is a socio-medical disease, which occurs as a result of persistent and excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages and which leads to damage to physical and mental health as well as to severe disorders in social-work and economic relations. Alcoholism is a growing problem of today, it is spread from the younger to the older population. Easy availability of alcoholic beverages, social acceptability, socio-economic environmental conditions contribute to the development of this serious disease. The aim of this paper is to present alcoholism as a socio-medical disease, its consequences on the individual and his environment and treatment options, as well as the impact of alcohol on the person and his personality. Seventy patients who are in hospital treatment for alcohol dependence were examined. All subjects were accommodated in the Rab Psychiatric Hospital. Respondents were divided into groups by age and sex, place of residence, employment, education, marital and financial status, manner and duration of hospitalization. The obtained results showed that the respondents who consumed alcohol to a greater extent were more physically aggressive and already had a degree of anger. Also, the obtained results showed that younger respondents are more prone to physical aggression than older ones. These results indicate the need to educate the population about the harmful effects of alcohol abuse from an early age, as well as with the possibility, process and goals of treatment when alcoholism occurs.
