 Connection Between Heavy Drinking and Mental Ailments
Even though most Australians do know about the dangers of alcohol abuse, they still drink to manage depression and anxiety, a recent insight has revealed.
Most Australians are aware about the link between drinking and mental health problems, and how alcohol can actually worsen it, but many take to it for the immediate relief it provides in lifting ones spirits.
