Why is it that when people drink liquor/ alcohol the truth comes out?

Question

Or why is it that the emotions change when drinking liquor.

Answer 1

I've never had that happened to me personally although I know what you mean. I think a lot of people think drinking and being drunk gives them the opportunity to say what's on their mind because they're unable to say those things when sober. I guess because the alcohol loosens them up, they open up more.  

Answer 2

lol I feel I know this one all too well

Im a rather shy person. Give me a little alcohol and I loosen up. But not to a crazy extent. I end up being the person I am with my very closest friends. Im just more comfortable. Though I will admit that I have more confidence.

Theres always this one guy at my friends parties who Ive had a crush on. When we both drink its easier to be around each other. No we dont go into a hidden room and fool around alone. We just enjoy each others company with ease.

Alcohol just opens up your confidence. I guess thats why they jokingly call it liquid confidence.  

Answer 3

Alcohol impairs the function of the brain. It makes it difficult for neurons to send the right message or interpret a message correctly.

Thats why you get slurred speech, blurred vision, and difficutly balancing when you're drunk.

You also begin to do stupid stuff, since you can't rationalize decisions you make.

The truth comes out because lying is a conscious act. If you know something is a lie, and you say it anyway, it is because of a conscious thought on your part. But when alcohol gets in the way of conscious thought, you just say whatever.

And emotions change because of the mixed up signals in your brain. Sometimes the alcohol will affect the emotion center, giving you huge mood swings.

Answer 4

they say what they really mean and blame it on the alcohol, thats lame and wrong

Answer 5

It is because Alcohol Lowers peoples ambitions which in return, make them less able to lie, because they simply do not care as much when they are intoxicated. Not all people are like this, but many however do speak things they would normally hold back.

Thats another reason why Police are not supposed to question someone if they are under the influence of drugs or alcohol. h**l we are not even supposed to read them they're rights when they are drunk. But thats because of another reason though.  

Answer 6

Alcohol first effects the frontal lobe. This in tern lowers inhabitions and alows one to feel as though they are so called braver or telling it how it is. In all actuality your judgement is lowerd so you cant make propper descisions in real time.

Answer 7

Alcohol makes people braver.

Answer 8

because when they are  drunk they dont know what they are saying, so it easyer to come on out and spill the beans
