MONDAY, Dec. 4, 2017 (HealthDay News) \u2014 With the traditional flood of holiday parties and festivities approaching, chances to drink excessively increase. So, what to do?<\/p>\n

Start by taking a closer look, now, at your drinking habits, one mental health expert suggests.<\/p>\n

"The holidays generate both positive and negative emotions, and drinking is one of the methods that people often use to cope," said Dr. Karen Miotto, a clinical professor of psychiatry at the University of California, Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

"Overwhelmed from the time-pressured schedules, people may see alcohol as a shortcut to relax," she said in a UCLA news release. "While there is nothing wrong with enjoying yourself or unwinding, listen to your body and keep yourself safe. A hangover the next day is a large price to pay for a night of letting go with alcohol."<\/p>\n

Besides using alcohol to unwind, another common reason people give for drinking is that it helps them get to sleep.<\/p>\n

"Alcohol can help people fall asleep faster and sleep more deeply for a while," Miotto said. "But the sedative effects of alcohol can be deceiving because it is associated with decreased quality of sleep and rebound insomnia, a problem that occurs when you discontinue the substance that's been helping you fall asleep."<\/p>\n

Some people claim they're not affected by alcohol. Some mistakenly feel they're OK to drive after drinking.<\/p>\n

"With habitual, heavy drinking, people tend to develop tolerance," she said. However, "even if your speech is not slurred, alcohol may still be affecting your motor coordination.<\/p>\n

"While it is important to consider safety concerns, another unfortunate consequence of heavy drinking is a DUI conviction," Miotto said. "A DUI conviction can damage your job prospects and potentially endanger your career, especially if you are a licensed professional, such as a doctor or nurse."<\/p>\n
