Sociological Study on Treatment of Alcoholism in India Context with Respect to Impact on Depression

Author(s): Ved Parkash

Abstract:

Depression often impacts both the treatment process and outcomes in individuals with alcohol dependence. While identifying depression is crucial, not all alcohol-dependent individuals with depressive symptoms require antidepressant therapy. A clear understanding of how depression and alcohol dependence are linked is vital for effective treatment. Consequently, it is important to adopt policies that include focused harm reduction approaches. From a public health standpoint, there is a pressing need for consistent coordination to ensure that the prevention of alcohol-related issues is fully integrated into policy-making concerning alcohol regulation and market control.
