Question 1

could you tell me what are some better ways of dealing with stress, depression, or anger rather than drinking?

Accepted Answer

Almost anything: Good that you are asking. It sounds like you have some insight into the fact that drinking isn't helping. The answer to your question is very personal. Ask your doctor if you can.

Good luck.

Accepted Answer

Go to Substance Abus: Great decision! Because alcohol withdrawal syndrome can be life-threatening, it's not a do-it-yourself home project. In other words, go to a Substance Abuse center for medical supervision. Or hospital ER if already having symptoms. You don't want to go thru delirium tremens.

Question 10

is drinking 1 vodkatonic healthy?

Accepted Answer

Not particularly: Alcohol in low doses (1 standard drink/day in women and older men, 2/day in men under 60) may increase our "good" cholesterol - hdl, but exercise does this much better than does alcohol. Red wine contains a chemical (resveratrol) that may be heart-healthy, but red grape juice has it too.  Amounts over the above recommended limits rapidly cause problems that outweigh any good.
