Why people tend to get more agressive when drunk
In: Biology
Alcohol inhibits parts of the brain linked to self control and self reflection. So your sober self might realize “That thing that just happened made me angry, but it isn’t that big a deal so I don’t need to punch this guy”, whereas your drunk self might be like “That thing that just happened made me angry so I need to punch this guy”.
Alcohol doesn’t *create* anger, rather it suppresses our ability to process, rationalize, and control our anger.
