La interacción entre el alcohol y las drogas, sean legales o no, puede cambiar o agravar los efectos de ambos e incluso puede llevar a la muerte.</p> <p>Consumir alcohol para “automedicarse” y cambiar su estado de ánimo nunca es buena idea. Si tiene problemas para sobrellevar algún problema de salud mental, la mejor opción es buscar apoyo profesional; incluso también existen líneas de ayuda y otros recursos. De igual forma, si le preocupa su consumo de alcohol o el de alguien más e impacta en su salud mental, puede consultarlo con un profesional de la salud para que le ayude a determinar el nivel de riesgo, así como las intervenciones y tratamientos más apropiados.</p> </div> </div> </section> <section class="module-link-box pt-0 pb-0"> <div class="container-fluid"> <div class="link-box column-start-1 column-end-13 "> <a class="link-wrapper d-flex" href='http://www.conadic.salud.gob.mx/Guia_Preventivas/La_neta_del_alcohol.pdf' target='_blank' title='Se abre en una nueva ventana' data-linktype='external' aria-label="La neta del alcohol"> <div class="link-icon"> <span class="external-link white"></span> </div> <div class="link-content"> <div class="link-text fw-800"> La neta del alcohol </div> <span class=""> http://www.conadic.salud.gob.mx/ </span> <span class="small-link-icon external-link"> </span> </div> </a> </div> <div class="link-box column-start-1 column-end-13 "> <a class="link-wrapper d-flex" href='https://www.gob.mx/tramites/ficha/centro-de-atencion-ciudadana-la-linea-de-la-vida/CONADIC3414' target='_blank' title='Se abre en una nueva ventana' data-linktype='external' aria-label="Línea de Ayuda Nacional"> <div class="link-icon"> <span class="external-link white"></span> </div> <div class="link-content"> <div class="link-text fw-800"> Línea de Ayuda Nacional </div> <span class=""> https://www.gob.mx/ </span> <span class="small-link-icon external-link"> </span> </div> </a> </div> <div class="link-box column-start-1 column-end-13 "> <a class="link-wrapper d-flex" href='https://www.gob.mx/salud/conadic/es/articulos/hablemos-de-alcohol-y-depresion-15-de-noviembre-dia-nacional-contra-el-uso-nocivo-de-bebidas-alcoholicas?idiom=es' target='_blank' title='Se abre en una nueva ventana' data-linktype='external' aria-label="“Hablemos de alcohol y depresión”"> <div class="link-icon"> <span class="external-link white"></span> </div> <div class="link-content"> <div class="link-text fw-800"> “Hablemos de alcohol y depresión” </div> <span class=""> https://www.gob.mx/ </span> <span class="small-link-icon external-link"> </span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </section> <section class="accordion "> <div class="container-fluid"> <div class="accordion-item column-start-1 column-end-13 pt-20 pb-20"> <a href="javascript:void(0);" class="accordion-heading accordion-heading-js"> <span class="accordion-title fw-800">Referencias</span> <span class="accordion-icon accordion-icon-js"> <svg width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet" fill="#2314a7" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path fill-rule="evenodd" clip-rule="evenodd" d="M11 9H20V11H11V20H9V11H0V9H9V0H11V9Z"></path></svg> </span> </a> <div class="accordion-content accordion-content-js "><ol> <li> Abrahao, K.P., A.G.
