> Why should depressed people not drink even "moderate amonts" of alcohol, such as 2-4 drinks per day? Can it exacerbate the side effects of starting antipressants?
Are you alcoholic? I think alcohol really enhances depression, at least for me and the fact that I am an alcoholic means I usually abuse it and drink until I'm in trouble of some sort. Alcohol is such a strong substance that it certainly could alter the effects of anything else I might be trying to relieve my depression. S
