Dr. Fuller. Alcoholism, crime and mental illness Alcoholism, crime and. insanity. — The journal of mental science, 1909

Abstract

Alcoholism, crime and psychosis are closely related. In an institution for the cure of alcoholics, people who have already been sued for crimes not in a drunken state often end up - those who were mentally ill also get into it. A careful study of alcoholics in very many cases indicates the existence of various mental anomalies in them even before drinking. Such people are often very intolerant of even small amounts of alcohol, which is why they get drunk earlier and more violently and more easily acquire the need for alcohol.
