Depressialism: The state in which alcoholism and depression collide in a self-destructive behavior leading to more abuse of booze, and subsequent depression.
The difference between depressialism and the combination of Alcoholism and Depression, is the slight enjoyment of feeling mentally unwell, as if melancoly were some comfort.
The only known treatment of people suffering from such affliction is a bit of whiskey in their morning coffee, but no more than a nip or the spiral of disallusion begins again.
