Alcohol
Most people enjoy drinking alcohol. Some, however, may not be aware of the facts about alcohol and the effects it can have on their body and mind.
We drink for a variety of reasons - to help us to relax, socialise or celebrate. Sensible drinking is not usually harmful, and can be enjoyable.
However, some people drink more alcohol than others. There are times when drinking too much - or even drinking at all - can cause problems (e.g. drinking and driving, or drinking alcohol at work). See the alcohol misuse section for more information.
If you or your partner are pregnant or planning for pregnancy, it is important that you visit the alcohol & pregnancy section.
