Alcohol alters the brain’s chemistry and increases the risk of depression. It is often associated with a range of mental health problems. Extreme levels of drinking (defined as more than 30 units per day for several weeks) can occasionally cause ‘psychosis’, a severe mental illness where hallucinations and delusions of persecution develop. Psychotic symptoms can also occur when very heavy drinkers suddenly stop drinking and develop a condition known as ‘delirium tremens’. Heavy drinking often le...more

Set a drinking goal. Choose a limit for how much you will drink. Make sure your limit is not more than one drink a day if you’re a woman, or two drinks a day if you’re a man.

This is the deception very artfully proposed by the unconscious mind and at a time that you are vulnerable it will convince you that you can quit whenever you want and that it is easy. Then you fall into the trap all over again. You need to identify why you need to drink, and go back into your childhood to find out other influences on your personality that makes you prone to addiction. Meet with an addiction counselor and work with them to sort out this drive. Your already display the classic te...more

Good afternoon,
A good de-addiction specialist is important for you to consult since you are having problems​ with sleep-related​ to alcoholism.

I also believe that you need some imaging studies and blood tests which can be done when you consult a psychiatrist.
Look forward to hearing from you. If you need help ...more

It is ok, but dont increase the frequency of consumption. Monthly once can be called as social drinking but I have seen lots of people with weekend drinking along (once a week) having severe liver and other problems. So for now you are OK, but you need to maintain the same. All the best
