Abstract Alcoholism is a social phenomenon that affects all social classes and is a chronic disorder that causes the person to drink uncontrollably, which can bring a series of social problems.With this motivation, a delayed drinking model including five subclasses is proposed in custom congratulations banner this paper.By employing the method of characteristic eigenvalue and taking the temporary immunity delay for alcoholics under treatment as a bifurcation parameter, a threshold value of the time delay for the local stability of drinking-present equilibrium and the existence of Hopf bifurcation are found.Then the length of delay has been estimated to preserve stability using the Nyquist criterion.Moreover, optimal strategies to lower down the number of drinkers are proposed.

Numerical simulations are presented to examine the correctness rosy teacup dogwood of the obtained results and the effects of some parameters on dynamics of the drinking model.
