The Dark Side of Alcohol: Understanding Aggression and Impulsivity

Ever wondered why some people become aggressive when they drink? This episode of 'Recovery Partner Network' tackles the tough questions about alcohol and its impact on behavior. When we drink, our ability to control impulses and reflect on our actions takes a hit. Instead of exercising self-control, we often give in to urges that can lead to violent outcomes. The podcast dives into how alcohol affects executive functions in the brain, making it harder to regulate emotions and actions.
It’s a must-listen for anyone trying to understand the complexities of alcohol-induced aggression, whether you’re personally affected or supporting a loved one through recovery. This episode breaks down the science behind the behavior in an easy-to-understand way, shedding light on why alcohol can sometimes bring out the worst in us.
