Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which is greatly affecting my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I visit a neurology department. I'm asking if people with neurasthenia can drink alcohol?Doctor's answer:
Patients with neurasthenia need to pay attention to rest and are advised not to drink alcohol, as alcohol stimulates our brain nerves, numbs our nerves, and affects our rest, which is beneficial for the complete recovery of the disease. Drinking occasionally, not exceeding half a liang, is acceptable, but it is best to limit it to once a week. Neurasthenia can be completely recovered through active control and adjustment. After complete recovery, it is necessary to promptly re-adjust and maintain a balance between work and rest.
