For the past number of years, TheJournal.ie has partnered with the Global Drug Survey to understand people’s relationship with controlled and uncontrolled substances. The team behind that research work is launching a special edition for Covid-19. Professor Adam R Winstock, a consultant psychiatrist and addiction medicine specialist and CEO of Global Drug Survey, says that people are turning to different coping mechanisms in this unprecedented situation. “For some people it’s baking, reading, yoga, virtual dance parties, or simply binging with Netflix. For others it’s drinking or using other drugs,” he says........ 

It takes between 10 and 15 minutes to complete. If you are interested in taking part, the survey link is included in the article. The results of the survey will be published on TheJournal.ie.
