This disorder is well known to most of us. Remember that tolerance is built up over time, explaining the increase in intake of alcohol. Initially most substance abuse begins with the euphoric sensations the substance creates, soon however, once our body gets used to the substance, use of the substance mutates the user into a creature desperately and continual attempting to avoid the awful symptoms of withdrawal. So substance abuse is really the change from the pursuit of pleasure to the avoidance of withdrawal.
