Alcoholic hallucinosis

Alcoholic hallucinosis (or alcohol-related psychosis or alcohol-induced psychotic disorder) is a complication of alcohol withdrawal in alcoholics. Descriptions of the condition date back to at least 1907. They can occur during acute intoxication or withdrawal with the potential of having delirium tremens. Alcohol hallucinosis is a rather uncommon alcohol-induced psychotic disorder only being seen in chronic alcoholics who have many consecutive years of severe and heavy drinking during their lifetime. Alcoholic hallucinosis develops about 12 to 24 hours, and could very well last for days, after the heavy drinking stops suddenly. It involves auditory and visual hallucinations, most commonly accusatory or threatening voices.〔(Alcohol ) Merck Manual, February 2003.〕 The risk of developing alcoholic hallucinosis is increased by long-term heavy alcohol abuse and the use of other drugs.
==Cause==
The cause of alcoholic hallucinosis is unclear. It seems to be highly related to the presence of dopamine in the limbic system with the possibility of other systems.〔 There are many symptoms that could possibly occur before the hallucinations begin. Symptoms include headache, dizziness, irritability, insomnia, and indisposition. Typically, alcoholic hallucinosis has a sudden onset.
