hey Cathy--I don't know everything about alcohol and why it makes us do the things we do. I DO know that alcohol is a depressant. It depresses our heart rate, breathing, brain function, everthing. That is why a person can DIE from drinking too much alcohol. You simply shut down. It is a very scary thought for me to realize how close I probably came to death because of my drinking. Let me know what else you find out!
Hugs--
