Rashelle's behavior of needing a more than usual number of drinks to get high is more likely to indicate alcohol abuse because she needs a large amount of alcohol and she is drinking excessively in the pursuit to get high.

What is society's perception of alcohol misusers?
Alcohol abuse is frowned upon for good reason. Problems can arise as a result of alcohol abuse such as violence, vehicle accidents resulting in death or injury, neglect of family, and health problems. The important thing to do is differentiate the behavior from the person engaging in the behavior. The behavior is self-destructive and can also hurt others, but the frequent abuser of alcohol has a problem. Alcoholism is a disease. So it is not right to look down upon or hate the person; only their behavior. This does not mean that their behavior should not have unpleasant consequences. After all, consequences will hopefully move them to seek treatment and recover.

What zodiac sign has the lowest suicide rate?
Well there isn't any scientific data on this, per se. The problem is that science doesn't believe in Astrology, but auto-insurance does! There have been numerous studies which indicate that Scorpio is the least likely to die (or even be involved in) a fatal automobile accident. This is surprising, considering Astrology says Scorpios are prone to alcohol abuse and risk taking. Come to think of it, this data is an indictment of the M.A.D.D. syndicate as well. Anyway, dying in automobile accidents is a risky behavior, and suicide is often associated with that. So, based on the items I laid out here, I would assume Scorpios are the lowest rate, given their aversion to truly risky behavior which has been studied and documented.
