A person may throw up blood after drinking for different reasons, depending on factors such as how much they drink and their other lifestyle choices. The main risks associated with drinking and throwing up blood are damage to the liver and alcohol-related liver disease, which are prevalent among regular drinkers. A 2018 study notes that alcohol-related liver disease is one of the main causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. Additionally, alcohol is a risk factor in people who have other forms of liver disease, such as that resulting from the hepatitis C virus. It may not always be possible to avoid throwing up blood after drinking, but abstaining from alcohol will be an effective preventive measure for many people. Drinking alcohol over time increases the risk of liver damage and its related issues, which may increase the risk of vomiting blood. It may also help to remove other risk factors for bleeding, such as regular non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use. Drinking water and staying hydrated may eliminate dehydration, which could prevent throwing up blood due to the irritation of a dry throat.

Cyclothymia is a type of bipolar mood disorder. These conditions cause periods of depressive symptoms that alternate with periods of mania, in which a person experiences increased excitement, euphoria, or overactivity, as well as agitation. Cyclothymia causes a less intense form of mania called hypomania. A doctor or psychiatrist will use the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) to determine whether or not a person has cyclothymia. The DSM-5 is a book that provides detailed information about various mental health conditions and their symptoms. In some cases, the symptoms of cyclothymia may be mild enough that a person does not seek mental health treatment. In other cases, the symptoms may severely disrupt a person’s day-to-day functioning. In either case, a person who believes that they may have symptoms of cyclothymia should seek help from their doctor. People with cyclothymia have a higher chance of developing bipolar I or bipolar II disorder. There is currently no cure for cyclothymia. However, a doctor or psychiatrist can help a person develop a treatment plan to help manage their symptoms. This plan may consist of a combination of medication and psychotherapy. If a person feels that their treatment plan is not working well for them, they should discuss this with their doctor or psychiatrist. There are many different approaches to treatment, and a person may have to try several options before finding one that works for them.
