So there are actual people out there who find alcohol works as an anti-depressant?

After a divorce I spent 1 year on different combinations of prescribed meds but due to their low effectiveness I tried a phase of self-med. I was drinking beer and wine as a trial experiment and was drunk and MORE depressed.
I never drank again in that manner. Does anyone really believe it helps with depression or is that really just an excuse to drink?

As a warning to anyone struggling with depression, alcohol may lead to further depression or suicidal behavior.
