Journal Title: Revista Científica Retos de la Ciencia - Year 2021, Vol 5, Issue 11
Abstract
This work describes the relationship between stress and alcohol consumption during the period of social confinement established because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It starts from the premise that there is an increase in stress that encourages alcohol consumption among the18 to 55-year-old population. Social confinement constitutes an environment that contributes to raising stress levels, leading to post-traumatic stress disorder. This measure was applied to prevent the massive spread of the new virus, after the World Health Organization issued biosafety and disease control guidelines. A compilation of 47 academic articles published between March 2020 and November 2020 was carried out. The results show that from March to April there was an increase in alcohol consumption as a measure of self-medication to relax and calm down during this stressful situation, and that this was more prevalent among women and health personnel, whereas for the following months - May to June - alcohol consumption decreased.
