In reply to Alcohol. A drug?, posted by J Kelly on March 11, 2016, at 15:49:40
IMHO, alcohol definitely qualifies as a drug. For those who don't have a problem with it, I'm sure small doses can be beneficial.
But it can have subtle negative after-effects. I didn't believe my counselor when she said alcohol can depress your mood for up to 10 days after a single evening drinking moderately -- until I started tracking my mood & alcohol consumption -- darn it, she was right!
And a study years back showed that in "normies" who were required to take a few drinks daily their anger quotient went up markedly.
