The Relationship Between Alcohol and Depression with Psychiatrist Dr. Paul Linde

Hear from expert psychiatrist Dr. Paul Linde about the relationship between alcohol and depression.

Alcohol has significant effects on anxiety and depression. But, there are multiple options with medication assistance to help you recover from your alcohol use with the depression and anxiety that goes hand-in-hand with it.

My withdrawl symptoms were so bad I was given Ativan once a day for a few days, but that was it. 20 days no booze so far, longest in 10 years. I keep watching videos like this to keep me sober.

Gabapentin, at 1200mg 3x a day (3600mg), made me suicidal and extremely lethargic. This was prescribed for nerve pain from a spinal cord injury, not for anxiety. Beware.

My son was treated with benzos all the time by “rehab” type doctors. Astronomical amounts…. Like 5 -2mg Klonopin a day which I would give him 2-3 a day. Very interesting talk about these drugs. I lost my 32 yo son on
Oct 27, 2019. We never could find a good addiction doctor. I’ll keep this info in mind for myself. I started Wellbutrin along with The Sinclair Method (TSM 3 years ago!). I tried so hard to help my son. Wish we’d had found someone like Dr Linde. Starting to listen to you now that I found you thru Katie! Go Katie!

Withdrawal symptoms… interesting.. never knew that and I read a lot!

You can use pregabalin instead of gabapentin. Basically same thing. Hits gaba receptor.

Ondanzetron helped me during withdrawal and mitazapine does help most people with sleep

Ría health I decided to make Friday the last time I drink alone on Fridays out with roommate cause I just don’t want to drink by myself anymore. I set a test for last weekend to not drink alone at my parents while dog sitting and I didn’t drink at all . Last time I purchased alcohol 7/1/21, last drank alone at my house 7/10/21

Nice video. ill share my experience with gabapentin. honestly got me i didnt notice one thing helpful or calming with it.i tried low doses and high doses of it and i was on it daily for about 6 months. infact i think it made my derealisation depersonalization and anxiety worse. i litterally did not feel at all sedated or calm on gabapentin its not for me BUT it works differently for eveyrone right so it could possibly help you
