Alcohol is the perfect cure for chronic depression…
Look at it like this a person is depressed all the time due to a certain tragedy in his life or ongoing problem or problems..so yeah he is depressed all the time….mostly hopeless and nothing feels right…it's just sad and sorrow all the time straight up…
When he drinks alcohol it makes him alive, happy and he enjoys it…so whenever he is at it everything feels right…so if he does it all the time he is happy all the time instead of being sad all the time?

You're essentially taking out a loan with a lot of interest. It will make you feel great in the moment, but will later be a bigger price to pay, and I'm not talking about a hangover. But for some, it may be worth it considering their present circumstance.

You can't do it "all the time" unless you want to have serious health problems.
Also, alcohol makes depression worse when you come down from it.

Classic alcoholic in the making.
The scenario you just described is a person never facing what is actually making them depressed, never working to improve their mental health.
Alcohol won't fix your depression, just make you forget it for a while. You still need to fix the underlying issue…
Or just embrace the alcoholism.
But yeah.. drinking alcohol is fun. Goku Lands on Namek.
But every alcoholic reaches a point where it isn't anymore. And it's pretty much way too late at that point.

It's a thief.
Former rugby player, frat guy, etc., I've been around the drinking block a few times. Even the heavier drinking non-alcoholic friends lose a lot as the years go by. It's not pretty seeing a 50 year old heavy drinker, even if it hasn't taken over their lives.
35 and already have a longer list than I should of friends lost due to alcohol. Not to even get into what I allowed alcohol to take away from me, and I am still scraping tooth, nail, and claw to get back.
I was a legitimate millionaire in my late twenties. Two successful businesses, successful career, dating news anchors, 8/10 doctors, bought luxury cars cash, etc. Vacation condo, property rentals, 3.9 GPA in my MBA program. IRA, pension, 401ks.
Still have the IRAs and 401ks, but most of the above was lost. The nightmares of seizures, DT's hospitalizations, etc. is over in sobriety, but the road back to be established is a long and hard one.
For the non-alcoholic yeah, it can work as a crutch temporarily, but it's a dangerous road. Drinking rarely ever solved the underlying issues. Just kicked them down the road and gave the problem a shot of OJ.

But no, the vast majority of people that are successful continue to do the things that made them successful in regards to drive, discipline, and do not abuse substances. They remain ambitious and apply the free time financial independence gives to their family, volunteering, new business ventures, vacationing, mentoring, things that drive real purpose.
Generally from my own observations, successful people that get overcome by alcohol have had this developing, but it wasn't significant to get in the way of operating. Eventually a time comes when it begins to have a serious impact, and people can skate on thin ice for years, but due to the progressivity of the disease the ice gets thinner and the skater gets heavier, and when the ice finally breaks it can mean losing family, home, career all in short order. In the case of untouchables like the very wealthy, its health.
The malaise I felt about life that alcohol temporarily helped me escaped from was only made worse due to drinking. The blinders go on, the malaise gets worse, it becomes depression. Vicious cycle with a downward spiral.
Goals and purpose are a strong direction in life, alcohol slowly erodes goals and purpose. Baseline happiness declines, a sense of what is the point sets in, then once the physical aspect of alcohol abuse sets in, it gets ugly very fast.

35 and already have a longer list than I should of friends lost due to alcohol. Not to even get into what I allowed alcohol to take away from me, and I am still scraping tooth, nail, and claw to get back.
I was a legitimate millionaire in my late twenties. Two successful businesses, successful career, dating news anchors, 8/10 doctors, bought luxury cars cash, etc. Vacation condo, property rentals, 3.9 GPA in my MBA program. IRA, pension, 401ks.
Still have the IRAs and 401ks, but most of the above was lost. The nightmares of seizures, DT's hospitalizations, etc. is over in sobriety, but the road back to be established is a long and hard one.
For the non-alcoholic yeah, it can work as a crutch temporarily, but it's a dangerous road. Drinking rarely ever solved the underlying issues. Just kicked them down the road and gave the problem a shot of OJ.

Throw a stone and there's a rehab center with doctors and gas station workers, rich and poor, handsome and plain.
Each alcoholic to their own, but I think I was suffering from depression before I started drinking alcohol. At times I hit a very low point, when I felt enough was enough and that's when I decided to try alcohol….and so it was so fun that it completely erased my depressed for few hours or a couple of days…so I asked myself why not keep on doing it….and it's working well with me since 2007…(but I won't say I was always a regular drinker)…
Alcohol works temporarily to "manage" depression, but in many heavy consumption leads to a similar end of the road. Luckily for some, they find the off-ramp.

I honestly don't understand how much some of you have to be drinking to get to this stage. We must be talking "Intervention" levels of alcoholism here. I love booze yet I've never experienced seizures, etc. Not even when mixed with pepsi. Bad hangovers, unproductive days, regrets, sure. But never what you described.
But I also pace myself and never go full retard with it
