That's the conclusion of a study conducted by Indiana University, USA, which examined the drinking and marital relations of more than 5000 people. According to the lawyer Gustavo Bassini, vice president of the Brazilian Bar Association Family (Abrafas), abuse of alcohol and other drugs is also a problem for couples in the country "is a major cause of divorce.And in the last four or five years, I noticed an increase of 300% in such cases, "he says. According to the survey, the dependence among women is associated with a 23% greater risk of not getting married until 30 years - for men, this rate is 36%. When married, men and women alcoholics are twice as likely to separate.

They were followed for about ten years. Bassini account that 25% of divorce cases seen at his law firm are related to alcohol abuse and drug abuse by one partner. In 80% of cases, the partner is troubled man. In such situations, the separation ends in court fight. "After several attempts to heal the spouse and hospital clinics, the woman's husband has given up." So goes with the application of unilateral divorce, and often, neither the other party responds to the process.
