The UTHealth Center for Neurobehavioral Research on Addiction is looking for healthy individuals who are 18+ to participate in a study examining the relationship between alcohol use and stress/anxiety.
Do you drink after a hard day or just to relax? Individuals whose drinking is affected by stress & anxiety may be eligible to participate in a UTHealth Center research study.
There are a number of approved medications for alcohol use, but none of these medications address the role that stress plays in alcohol consumption.
Our research study aims to understand how targeting stress-related systems in the body can decrease alcohol consumption.
Participation in this study may help researchers find ways to decrease stress reactivity in those who drink to cope.
