A study of 38,000 Norwegians suggests a surprising benefit of alcohol for people who drink: an apparently lower risk of depression than people who abstain completely. But if alcohol can lead to depression, does that mean abstaining from alcohol will make you happier? A new study suggests that the opposite actually tends to be true. In fact, those who never drink are at significantly higher risk for not only depression but also anxiety disorders, compared with those who consume alcohol regularly.
