Abstract
The topic of alcohol addiction has been on the world's radar. Since the global outbreak of COVID-19, people worldwide have been affected by COVID-19 to varying degrees, including economically, in health, and in education. In the context of COVID-19, the psychosocial strain has caused an escalation in alcohol addiction and issues such as suicide, violence, and severe alcohol dependence, leading to increased attention to alcohol addiction. This paper aims to examine the reasons for the increase in alcohol addiction (both new and relapsed) and the generalization of treatment options (pharmacological and non-pharmacological) for alcohol addiction in the context of COVID-19 through a biopsychosocial model. The mechanism of alcohol addiction involves different levels such as biological, psychological and social. This paper also discusses the advantages and disadvantages of popular online counseling in the context of the epidemic. For the individual, this paper may help enhance the future treatment of alcohol addiction to mitigate the harmful effects of alcohol addiction on the individual. This paper also provides a reference for research in related fields. More research into the treatment of alcohol addiction in the context of a large epidemic could help alleviate the suffering of patients in the future.
