Every ward of Anding Hospital has treated patients with mental disorders caused by alcohol dependence, and such mental patients have accounted for nearly 10% of the total number of inpatients.

In recent years, with the increase of people's social activities in modern life, meeting relatives and friends for dinner and drinking, the increase of bar nightlife, the improvement of living conditions and the increase of opportunities for family and drinking alone, there has been a high incidence of alcohol dependence in this city. Some people lost their jobs because of drinking, their families were ruined, and they even drank themselves into a mental hospital. Only Anding Hospital has 50 times as many psychiatric patients hospitalized for alcohol dependence as it did 10 years ago.
