Alcohol drinking habits predict long-term anxiety differently across age groups. Study finds consuming larger amounts of alcohol predicts higher anxiety levels in most adults, drinking more frequently but in smaller amounts is linked to lower anxiety in older…
🍻 A new study found that how alcohol affects future anxiety depends on age and drinking habits.
The study analyzed data from 21,405 Australian adults between 2006 and 2021.
🍻 For adults 51+, drinking small amounts more often was linked to slightly lower anxiety, while drinking larger amounts at once predicted higher anxiety.
🍻 For adults aged 26-50, drinking larger quantities per occasion predicted higher anxiety. No significant link was found for younger adults (18-25).
🍻 Researchers noted that while the effects are generally small, drinking heavily to manage anxiety may worsen it over time.
