Question
Does alcohol cause depression or does depression cause alcohol abuse?!?
Answer
Alcohol is a depressant. If you are not being treated by antidepressants, alcohol abuse could be a symptom of depression. It was for me at least. If you drink while on antidepressants, it basically cancels them out and can be dangerous. I found that out the hard way too. The moral of the story is, dont drink to get happy, it never works...at least for me.
