Getting High and Black-Out Drunk – Experts Baffled as to Why Adults are Getting So F’ed Up Post Pandemic (New Study)

In the wake of the pandemic, experts are scratching their heads over the noticeable surge in adults embracing excessive alcohol consumption, a phenomenon that has left many baffled. A recent study funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has revealed a concerning uptick in binge drinking among adults aged 35 to 50 in the year 2022. This trend continues an upward trajectory that began in 2012 when 23 percent of adults in this age bracket reported binge drinking. Shockingly, the numbers have now climbed to nearly 30 percent in 2022, raising questions about the factors behind this surge.
