Alcohol Addiction or Alcoholism has been portrayed in popular culture as something that is part of a happy life and sometimes develops into a bad habit.

Dementia is a disorder that usually occurs in old age. It is characterised by a group of symptoms which include overall cognitive decline, impairment in memory, language, judgement, and behaviour. The disorder is chronic and progresses over time. Dementia is a result of damage to the brain due to a loss of neural connections and the slow destruction of cells in the brain.
Depression is a serious psychological disorder characterized by intense feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and worthlessness that can severely impact an individual’s levels of functioning in daily life.
If left untreated, it can impact interpersonal relationships and work life and cause the individual to lose interest in their daily activities. According to WHO reports, around 56 million Indians suffer from some form of depression.
Bipolar Disorder is a mental health condition in which the patient experiences severe variations in mood, behaviors, and attitude toward life. Those suffering from Bipolar disorder exhibit extreme moods, like highs when the person feels excessively euphoric and irritable (hypomania) and extreme lows of depression (feelings of hopelessness and dread) in a cyclical manner.
