Betty Ford says women alcoholics face more pressure to seek help
Betty Ford told about 250 at a National Restaurant Association luncheon in Chicago that women with alcoholism endure harsher social judgments and are slower to seek treatment. She cited promiscuity stigma, family protection, and easier access to prescriptions as factors, contrasting with men. She also noted women enter centers sicker than men.
