=== Alcoholism and divorce ===
According to the article ''The Link Between Alcoholism and Divorce'':
{{Cquote|Regarding the correlation between alcoholism and divorce, the real issue seems to arise when only one spouse is the heavy drinker in the marriage. Studies have shown that when one spouse has a drinking problem, the couple is much more likely to divorce.
For example, according to a study published in May 2014 in the [http://www.jsad.com/toc/jsad/75/3 Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs], researchers from the University of Michigan found that nearly half of the more than 17,000 study participants with a history of alcoholism got a divorce at some point in their lives, while only 30% of the participants who were not affected by serious alcohol problems got a divorce.
The consequences of periodic or ongoing excessive drinking can lead to the deterioration of the communication channels, as well as the intimate relationship between the couple. Specific manifestations of such deterioration may include arguments, serious financial problems, acts of infidelity and acts of violence.<ref>[https://www.araglegal.com/individuals/learning-center/topics/family-and-relationships/link-between-alcoholism-and-divorce ''The Link Between Alcoholism and Divorce'']</ref>}}
