Today is National Alcohol Screening Day in the United States.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated 237 million men and 46 million women suffer from alcohol-use disorders with the highest prevalence among men and women in the European region (14.8% and 3.5%) and the Region of Americas (11.5% and 5.1%). Alcohol-use disorders are more common in high-income countries. (WHO, 2024)
The Addiction Center reports, if one or both partners in a relationship struggle with an alcohol use disorder (AUD), it can have detrimental impacts on the relationship and lead to many negative outcomes, such as a lack of intimacy and an increase in infidelity and domestic violence. (Addiction Center, 2024)
