Alcohol, even in minimal amounts, has a definite effect on human behavior. There is a stereotype that courage, emancipation or aggression must appear. However, this is not quite true. In fact, the substances contained in alcohol can cause not only fun or arrogance, but also melancholy and depression.
Reasons for the emergence of courage
Most people who drink alcohol change their behavior dramatically. They seem to have absolutely no sense of fear. That is why fights of drunk people are very common. Even a minor event can cause aggression.
Specialists identify several categories of citizens who belong to a special risk zone. Aggression mainly occurs in chronic alcoholics, in persons suffering from certain mental illnesses and in those who have been depressed for a long time.
A situation familiar to many when, after drinking alcohol, it is difficult to remember the events that happened is a serious disease, which in medicine is called Korsakov's disease.
Alcohol entering the human body for a short period of time spreads from the stomach throughout the body, while getting into the brain and having an adverse effect on the central nervous system. Experts have proven that when you consume 100 g of an alcoholic drink, several thousand nerve cells die off. With severe intoxication, the human brain gradually decreases in size, all reflexes and intelligence are largely impaired. The courage that comes with alcohol is a mental disorder. The brain is simply not able to "think" about actions, their consequences and assess situations adequately.
Scientists have proven that excessive alcohol consumption causes brain toxicity. Due to this impact, a gradual degradation of a person as a person occurs. The consequence of such a process can be both uncontrolled aggression and the desire to end his life with suicide.
According to legend, God Deonis first planted a vine in the bone of a bird, then in a lion's and donkey's. Alcohol turns a person first into a "funny bird", then into a "fearless lion", and then into a "stupid donkey."
Stages of human exposure to alcohol
A person's behavior under the influence of drunk alcohol can change several times in a fairly short period of time. First, vigor and courage appear in the body. This is due primarily to the action of ethyl alcohol. In minimal quantities, this substance is able to relieve a person from feelings of fatigue, pain and give so-called lightness.
In the second stage, the components of alcohol penetrate into the blood vessels and begin to actively move towards the brain. At this moment, a component similar to adrenaline is produced in the human body. This factor becomes the reason not only for courage, but also for aggression. A person in every way tries to be in the center of attention, he hears sounds more clearly and is in an extremely relaxed state.
The third stage is protest. Any comments or criticism in the direction of an intoxicated person, cause him a fit of rage. The brain at this moment is in the so-called state of hypnosis. The work of the nervous system is disrupted, which causes an almost complete lack of sensitivity.
The final stage of alcohol exposure is awareness of their actions. It should be noted that such a moment is rarely present. It depends solely on the individual factors of a person's life.
