The mental health treatment provider The Priory Group, suggests that “stressful life events”, such as bereavement and losing a job are linked to alcohol addiction.
It explains: “In a similar way to untreated mental health conditions, the stress and trauma that surround these types of events may lead individuals to self-medicate with alcohol, which can lead to the development of a harmful addiction.”
In the UK, treatment is available through the NHS to help tackle the underlying causes of addiction and help to stop the habit in its tracks.
