Alcoholism is a chronic, curable illness that has a major effect on one's physical and mental well-being. By combining data from research on the connection between alcohol use disorder (AUD), psychosis, and overall health outcomes, this review seeks to close that gap. Ten of the 85 studies that were found through a thorough search of major databases met the inclusion requirements. The results show a substantial correlation between internalizing psychopathologies, such as depression, anxiety, and psychosis, and severe alcohol use. Early onset, masculine gender, low educational attainment, and socioeconomic adversity are important risk factors. Male young adults turned out to be a high-risk demographic, underscoring the significance of focused preventative and intervention measures. The use of self-reported data and the absence of long-term research are among the limitations. Future research should focus on longitudinal outcomes and more diverse populations to improve clinical responses and public health strategies.
