new study testing alcohol’s effects on brain activity

Alcohol Dulls Brain “Alarm” That Monitors Mistakes, MU Study Finds

from the University of Missouri says that alcohol dulls the brain “signal” that warns people when they are making a mistake, ultimately reducing self control.

https://nbsubscribe.missouri.edu/new...u-study-finds/

excerpts -
“Our study isn’t the first to show that alcohol reduces this alarm signal, but contrary to previous studies, our study shows that alcohol doesn’t reduce your awareness of mistakes – it reduces how much you care about making those mistakes.”

That's why... xabf , even knowing there was not enough money in account, went and got a $45 haircut ($10 for haircut, $35 for bounced check) and when questioned about this just looked blankly at me - duh, Now I get it... or rather - I have an article backing up (explaining, define, & teaching me) what I already found out...

“But generally speaking, having a strong brain response to mistakes promotes better self-control and helps people avoid making further mistakes in the future.”

That's where I come in, it's going on 7 yrs of on my own & Loving it
