Mental Health and Alcoholic Addiction of Rural Adults

Mallikarjun Jatteppa, Dr. R. Venkata Reddy

Abstract: Objective: In the adult community, heavy drinking is both normal and essential. Adults with higher levels of alcohol consumption and occasionally lower levels have been linked to worse mental and social outcomes. The study aimed to investigate how alcohol consumption relates to mental health among adults. Methods: influence of alcohol consumption on mental health status and association between the variables were investigated using descriptive and One-Way ANOVA statistical test. Results: Compared to those with low-risk consumption, those reporting hazardous consumption reported a modest decrease in mental health complaints, but they also reported higher levels of emotional and social isolation and mental health complaints. Conclusion: High-level alcohol use among adults might imply an elevated risk of many problems with mental health status. The study findings further show that the quality of the home environment can be more crucial for mental health. People living in rural areas had larger rates of addiction and worse mental health problems among adults. Addiction also results in deterioration of self-control, emotional equilibrium, and physical health. Adult alcohol addiction and mental health are significantly and negatively correlated. It implies that mental health is impacted by rising addiction rates.
