Where one searched for the fellow suffering from alcoholic depression? (4,3,3)
I believe the answer is:
high and low
'where one searched for the fellow suffering from alcoholic' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'depression?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'depression?' could be 'low' ('low' can be a synonym of 'depression') and 'low' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for high and low that I've seen before include "all over the place" , "everywhere" , "Where to search" , "roads to be taken in the air" , "Like varieties of churchmanship" .)
