Break up with alcohol! A love can take you out of trauma

Although turning to alcohol to drown your sorrows will only make them worse, the good news is that there are ways to improve your alcohol addiction. Virginia Commonwealth University published a study on April 22, 2021, which found that college students who have suffered psychological trauma due to interpersonal problems will have more aggressive and uncontrolled drinking behavior than ordinary college students. And if their peers are also heavy drinkers, the situation is even worse. The research team found that “love” is the best elixir to correct such wrong drinking habits!

The research team recruited 9,000 students to conduct DNA sampling and collected relevant data from the school’s experimental project “Spit For Science”, including alcohol drinking levels, emotional health, etc., to evaluate the relationship between interpersonal relationships and drinking behavior. Correlation, the results show that “good partnership” has a positive impact on bad drinking behavior.

Jessica who participated in this study. Dr. Jessica Salvatore said that previous research has shown that interpersonal trauma is related to alcohol abuse. The results of this experiment are very helpful for personal alcohol treatment and alcohol trauma treatment.

Can’t quit drinking if you’re single?! Don’t worry! There is also Group B to accompany you

Of course, we all know that love is about fate. Do we think singles who don’t have a partner should die? Not necessarily. The problem of alcoholism itself is a vicious cycle, because the body needs “vitamin B complex” to metabolize alcohol. If vitamin B complex is missing due to excessive drinking, it may cause memory loss, anxiety, drowsiness and even depression in alcoholics. Side effects such as madness eventually lead to nutritional deficiencies in the body, which can only lead to repeated alcohol abuse and deterioration of the body. At present, the medical community mostly uses B complex and fish oil to supplement alcoholics’ nutrition and inhibit their dependence on alcohol. So don’t complain that you don’t have a boyfriend/girlfriend to accompany you when you drink too much. It’s more practical to see a doctor and take medicine.

As the saying goes: “A small drink will make you happy, but a big drink will harm your body.” When you get so drunk that you vomit all over the toilet, and you wake up the next day with a splitting headache, I believe you feel a lot of regret. Next time you want to linger at the bar again, you might as well borrow a drink to strengthen your courage and chat with the handsome men and beauties next to you. Maybe you can form a romantic relationship and help each other escape from the endless cycle of alcohol!
