Fits my definition, but it doesn't take that serious a problem to fit my definition. To me, if
alcohol is causing marital problems, for example, and the person keeps drinking, then he's an

My definition is any one of the following:

- Marital problems

- Motor vehicle issues

- Job issues

- Health issues

Those would all be examples of what I meant by 'chronic problems'.
