Many times it can be just genetics. Here are some reasons:

  • Depression
  • Brought up in an unhealthy environment by their parents
  • Neglect by parents or sexual abuse by a parent
  • Rape
  • Bullying in school
  • Any trauma in life
  • Death of a loved one
  • Bad luck. Some people try hard and have one bad thing after another go wrong. It can over whelm some people while other may just forge onward.
  • Medications can sometimes make a person crave alcohol.
  • Ill health
  • Broken relationship
  • Losing a home to a natural disaster
  • Fear of the unknown
  • War
There are many reasons. Generally the person who is hooked on drugs or alcohol has the genetic tendencies.
