On several occasions I have seen so many people become an addict to taking alcohol and the reason they give is that they are going through so much than their mind can occupy. I know of a man who constantly drinks, gets drunk and begin to pull different stunts that he gets injured and he misbehaves sometimes he begins to dance around the street and little kids will begin to sing and follow him at the back, it is usually such an embarrassing scene, whenever he regains his senses and he gets to watch to video of how he behaved when he got drunk, he is usually ashamed of what he has done but he cannot just stop as it has become a part of him to take excessive alcohol.
I still really wonder if indeed, alcohol takes away stress, anxiety , depression and fear. I found out the harmful effects that alcohol causes rather than taking away worries as we think it does.
Alcohol serves as a depressant, so it takes our thoughts off balance and it is at this point that we feel that we have forgotten about our worries.
Excessive taking of alcohol actually makes you more depressed than you were before.
Excessive intake of alcohol in the real sense actually makes you go through stress you cannot handle.
Researchers have found out that excessive drinking lowers the level of chemicals that regulates mood in the body.
Excessive intake of alcohol affects our level of proper sleep and we wake up feeling weak and stressed because of a hang over.
People who take excessive alcohol have been found to commit suicidal acts the more.
When I read about this things I came to the conclusion that excessive drinking makes us worse and not better and as such, it should be avoided in every way.
There are other ways to deal with stress and depression rather than taking excessive alcohol.
You could just take a proper rest, confide in someone really close to you, do a simple exercise and so on.
your post is very good. all the points mentioned in your post are true. alcohol does not help but it worsens the situation both physical and mental. that becomes an addiction and create dependency. this leads lot of problems like social, financial physical and mental problems. in fact these tings should be educated to public more often. i appreciate your post. i upvoted and i will restreem it so that lots of families should be saved. in developing countries like INDIA this is a very big problem. unfortunately most of the state governments depends on excise income and encourage drinking habits in society. these shameless politicians are not ashamed of it and create more and more alcohol dependents.
Thank you so much for taking out time to read my post, it has become a very big issue here in Nigeria as well, any youth that does not take alcohol is regarded as a weakling, so most people take out because they do not want to be insulted by friends.
Wow
Alcohol only makes you tipsy and help you live on the fantasy that moment, after which you are back to where you started
