Explanation:

Alcohol use disorder is a chronic condition with physical and psychological dependencies. Acknowledging the problem is a critical first step toward recovery, as it allows individuals to seek or engage with support to stop drinking. The other options are false: alcoholics cannot simply stop at will due to dependency, others pointing out the problem does not guarantee they will stop, and most require external support to recover successfully.

Answer:

C. Alcoholics can stop drinking if they can admit that there is a problem.
