If energy drinks depress me, will alcohol do the same?

Yes and no.

Alcohol is a depressant but in most people the body counter-reacts its depressant effects giving a pleasurable feeling. In the long run alcohol does increase a persons susceptibility to depression.

I had major depression for over 20 years and cured it by cutting alcohol, as well as caffeine and processed sugars. The very ingredients I used to love to have in energy drinks, coffee, sweets, etc.

If you feel depressed now, sounds like you are prone to depression. It can sneak up on you in the long run even without energy drinks or alcohol, and you'll be wondering what happened.

I built a depression self help website sharing information to help those with depression and how to prevent and cure it. Here it is:

All the best.

Depends, alcohol usually makes me feel happy and extremely outgoing but some people are different.

energy drinks have a lot of caffeine- try cutting back and see how you feel.
