Students who indulge in binge drinking get into drinking related troubles often like injury due to accidents, misbehavior with higher authorities, missing classes, hangovers, etc.

Early signs, which have to be heeded, are heavy drinking even while driving and other high-risk situations, drinking until a person blacks out or loses his consciousness, marked behavioral changes
like uncontrollable anger erupting violently, etc.

From exhibiting these early symptoms, the drinker progresses on to the stage of alcohol abuse whereby he gets into trouble at work, with the law and at home frequently and yet does not stop his excessive drinking. The next progressive level is when the drinker becomes an alcoholic or alcohol dependent whereby he or she experiences extreme symptoms with loss of control over alcohol related craving and severe withdrawal symptoms.

The drinker has to be honest in his answers, when he or she has being questioned about his feelings, pattern of drinking, thought process, etc. This is very important, as the first thing any drinker will tend to do is to deny any kind of a problem. They tend to put in every effort to convince the person who is questioning them that they do not have any problem that requires treatment. All drinkers resist treatment.
