You can be an alcoholic and not know it

This Sunday, in the dossier, we focus on what is known as functional alcoholism, that is, what affects people who, at first glance, have a normal life but are dependent on alcohol that affects their daily functioning, although sometimes it is difficult to identify the origin of the symptoms. We have spoken with addicts and experts to put a face and voice to a problem that affects many more people than we think. Maybe you are an alcoholic and you don't know it, or maybe someone close to you is. We must break the taboo and start talking about it openly.
