Is it just me, or is there anyone else that drink alocohol extensively despite being at psych meds? I'm from Finalnd, we do drink alot here, maybe it's a way to conquer the darkness, I don't know. But still, I don't work now, and when the weekend comes I just need an escape from reality. Believe me, I'm not alcoholic in that sense I don't need it every day, it's just in the weekends, I need alcohol to be able to meet people and to have fun. Some meds are strictly prohibited with alcohol but most are not. The manufacturers covers their backs of course and recommends to avoid alcohol "during treatment".
I have had one bad experience with meds and alcohol, and that was with Lithium, it made me aggressive and I was hallucinating. Do you recognize my situation. Alcohol is great for relieving anxiety and boredom. I'm sorry for you guys where alcohol seems to be the only solution, I understand you./Mattias
