1. Alcohol? No.
2. Medication? Only if recommended by a medical professional specializing in mental disorders.
3. Counseling? Probably needed, at least short term, for any mental disorder.

i have never heard of any mental disorder that was treated with alcohol. I have heard of a great many that were made worse due to heavy alcohol consumption.
Many mental/emotional/personality disorders are now treated with a combination of counseling and medication.

I would not encourage you to use alcohol to treat mental disorders as alcohol is a depressant rather than giving you a more positive outcome such as an anti-depressant. Another issue is that alcohol abuse causes more inability to control behaviors rather than again the more desired affect of having more control over your body. Medication can be prescribed by a psychiatrist if it is needed and the counseling componet can be done by a therapist.

I doubt any doctor would say that alcohol is a good treatment for mental disorders, but medication and counseling is a good idea. Lay of the alcohol!

it truly works for me! a beer or 2 in the nighttime helps me relax and sleep like a touch one. anybody receives pressure and depressed thoughts each and every so often. the difficulty is now, anybody also thinks they're "ill" and favor a pill. Alcohol is definately more competitively priced,and really a lot less addictive than lots of the common drugs. some human beings react otherwise to it even with the actuality that. So the answer is definite, it quite is strictly why that's been so well-known for thousands of years. maximum folk sense good even as they drink,it quite is what a good drug is meant to do!! edit: i do not imagine some thing of you realize the question.he's not in search of help! that's a question about the outcome of alcohol on the options.He did not say some thing about being on drugs already! Did you even examine it?

alcohol causes mental disorders, have you heard of corsicov's syndrome. It is not recommended as therapy. Alcohol abuse is a canker on society, if it was classed as medication doctors would give a daily dosage, it is your life abuse it if you wish.

Pharmacological management combined with psychotherpay provides the maximum benefit.
Alcohol may seem beneficial in the first week but it will worsen everything.

Yes, physician advice is required in that case.
