Extract: The specifics of serotonin abnormalities in alcoholics remain unclear dispite continuing research. ~~~ the Relationship Between Alcoholism and Serotonin ~~~ "What we wanted to do for this study was use a very specific probe of the serotonin system, a functional probe that would shake up and excite serotonin by binding to just a single component of the serotonin system, something called a serotonin transporter," said Wand. ~~ Hormone levels were measured at numerous intervals, ranging from 30 minutes prior to and 240 minutes following dosage. ~~ We were surprised to see that citalopram did very little. ~~ Two, perhaps the serotonin transporter, which has been the subject of much attention, is not responsible for serotonin abnormality in alcoholics."Mary E. ~~

Extract: ~~~ hypotheses about the relationship between alcoholism and affective disorders ~~~ About the Relationship Between Alcoholism and Affective Disorders ~~~ Eric T. ~~ Among alcoholic subjects the COGA study found an increased prevalence of depressive syndrome (i.e., depression that may or may not occur in conjunction with increased drinking). ~~ Based on these data, COGA investigators defined three phenotypes—“alcoholism,” “alcoholism and depression,” and “alcoholism or depression”—and analyzed whether these phenotypes were linked to specific chromosomal regions. ~~ Key words: genetic theory of AODU (alcohol and other drug use); AOD dependence; genetic trait; major depression; mood and affect disturbance; comorbidity; phenotype; chromosome; AODR (alcohol and other drug related) genetic markers; prevalence; gender differences; genetic linkageIt is obvious to drinkers that a direct connection exists between alcohol consumption and mood. ~~

Extract: ~~~ alcoholism and depression tend to occur together and that both disorders may run ~~~ have uncovered regarding the relationship between alcoholism and depression: ~~~ alcoholics are significantly reduced after three to four weeks of sobriety. According to U.S. ~~ alcohol abuse statistics, since depression and alcohol abuse or alcoholism are related to suicide, and given the high rate of suicide in older people, health care professionals need to be sensitive to the presence of suicidal ideation in older patients. In short, clinicians must not only raise their awareness about depression and alcoholism in older adults but they should also refrain from confusing these disorders with "normal aging." Alcoholism and Depression: SuicideAlcohol impairs judgment, a fact that goes a long way in explaining its relationship with suicide. Additionally, due to the fact that alcohol abuse and alcoholism can intensify depression and increase impulsiveness, a person suffering from major depression and from alcoholism has a much higher risk of attempting and succeeding at taking his or her own life.Because of the risk of suicide, it is imperative that individuals suffering from major depression and alcoholism or alcohol abuse receive prompt medical attention.Alcoholism and Depression: TreatmentRegrettably, many individuals, including health practitioners, tend to perceive alcoholism and depression as separate problems when in fact they are associated with one another. Consequently, the positive relation between alcohol abuse or alcoholism and depression argues strongly for a more comprehensive approach to treatment. This means not only paying close attention to the "drinking problem" but also taking into consideration the treatment of depression - which can require anti-depressant medications or psychotherapy. It almost goes without saying that this type of extensive treatment approach will help ensure a more appropriate and effective outcome for the patient.According to many researchers and mental health practitioners the clinical assessment of current and past alcohol abuse and alcohol-related disorders should be established as a routine part of all medical or psychiatric evaluations.Moreover, all depressed patients should be frequently asked about their alcohol and drug use throughout the course of their treatment and advised to abstain from drug and alcohol abuse. In sum, when alcoholism or alcohol abuse occurs with depression, both the substance abuse and the mood disorder require immediate and professional treatment.Alcoholism and Depression: ConclusionAlcoholism and depression have a high comorbidity. This means that alcoholism and depression occur in the same individuals at a rate higher than they would normally occur if both disorders were not interrelated. The relationship "link" can biological, social, psychological, genetic or most likely a combination of these and other factors.The bottom line is this: when alcoholism or alcohol abuse occurs with depression, both the "drinking problem" and the mood disorder require prompt, quality treatment.Message to Alcoholics Don't just sit there and think things are going to get better. ~~ You need to take appropriate action by getting professional treatment and you need to take action now!Listen To A Free "Talking eBook" About Alcohol If you would like to listen to an informative and high-quality "talking eBook" entitled The Truth About Alcohol, please click on this link. ~~ Price: 16.00 One step at a time Women's Raglan Hoodie from RALLEY stained glass designs on gifts and t-shirts A stylish reminder to take things one step at a time. ~~
