Germany's underestimated alcohol drama: "I drink because I can't take it anymore"

Germany has an underestimated alcohol problem. Christoph Maria Michalski has highlighted the dangers of alcohol consumption in conflict situations. Alcohol only offers a deceptive relief and exacerbates problems in the long run. Conflicts often escalate when not openly addressed. According to Michalski, alcohol intensifies emotional avoidance. Michalski therefore calls for more courage for clarity and honesty. Alcohol-free team events could promote openness and communication.
