PSYCHOLOGY OF EMOTIONS

Detailed explanation-1: -Alcohol affects the part of your brain that controls inhibition, so you may feel relaxed, less anxious, and more confident after a drink. But these effects quickly wear off. The chemical changes in your brain can soon lead to more negative feelings, such as anger, depression or anxiety, regardless of your mood.

Detailed explanation-2: -Alcohol abuse can cause signs and symptoms of depression, anxiety, psychosis, and antisocial behavior, both during intoxication and during withdrawal. At times, these symptoms and signs cluster, last for weeks, and mimic frank psychiatric disorders (i.e., are alcohol–induced syndromes).

Detailed explanation-3: -GABA as a neurotransmitter has been long known to be affected by alcohol consumption.

Detailed explanation-4: -Symptoms may include confusion, vomiting, drowsiness, loss of consciousness, and respiratory arrest at this level. Blood alcohol concentration over 0.40% is regarded as potentially fatal.
