The question is all contained in the title. I see how alcohol is a depressant when one is in a bad mood. But if one is feeling happy or silly or excited, or at least you’re open to feeling that way, how is it that alcohol can enhance that, if it’s a depressant?
In: Biology
The reason its called a depressant is due to the fact it depresses your CNS when you’re intoxicated. Not because of its effect on your mood or affect.
Basically, when you drink more and more, the more your motor function and conscious state gradually declines until the point where you pass out or end up in A&E with alcohol poisoning
