| '''Alcohol abuse''', as described in the [[DSM-IV]], is a psychiatric diagnosis describing the use of [[alcoholic beverage|alcoholic beverages]] despite negative consequences. It is differentiated from [[alcohol dependence]] by the lack of symptoms such as [[Drug tolerance|tolerance]] and [[withdrawal]]. Alcohol abuse is sometimes referred to by the less specific term [[alcoholism]]. However, many definitions of alcoholism exist, and only some are compatible with alcohol abuse.
