How long does alcohol induced depression last?

I am a 39 year old male. I want to know how long does alcohol induced depression last?

1 Answer

Alcohol-induced depression will continue as long as you continue to drink alcohol. It is challenging to determine the duration of symptoms with abstinence, but factors that will prolong recovery are how much you have been drinking and for how long. Sobriety and recovery support with improve the outcome.
Hope this helps.
