Answer 1

Alcohol is a depressant. It relaxes you, which makes you feel good. Too much of it, isn't good for you. It will impair your judgment and make you think you are invincible and can do anything and everything.

Answer 2

Why ask why, just enjoy the ride.

Answer 3

It's like a borrowing money from a loan shark... you feel really good now, but tomorrow morning, you feel much worse!

How Does it Affect You?

When a person consumes alcohol, the drug acts on nerve cells deep in the brain. Alcohol initially serves as a stimulant, then induces feelings of relaxation and reduced anxiety. Consumption of two or three drinks in an hour can impair judgment, lower inhibitions, and induce mild euphoria. Five drinks consumed in two hours may raise the blood alcohol level to 0.10 percent, high enough to be considered legally intoxicated in every state. Once a drinker stops drinking, his or her blood alcohol level decreases by about 0.01 percent per hour.
