It lowers inhibitions but depends on what kind of drinking you are
talking about- there are varieties. Drinking can also be a form of
self-medication- like drugs- to cope, etc. but since alcohol is also a
depressant some use it simply to tune out and sleep. Where does one
drink? At a biker bar or at home, etc. Some become amorous- others
become surly and violent. Maybe behavior depends on what part of your
nature is inhibited. It also depends on what kind of society you are
in- are highjinks or binges part of a social ritual?
