Hi All;) .. Does drinking alcohol make you tell the truth?;)?

Question

Thanks, for answering, in advance!;)

Answer 1

Alcohol, in and of itself, is not a truth serum.

However, its effects really well mimic that solution.

Alcohol impairs general neural function. You slow down and become disoriented.

Alcohol also impairs your inhibitions. You are naturally inhibited from telling the truth on certain things which you perceive as detrimental to you.

For reference, the Jews have a saying: "A little wine goes in; a little truth comes out."

Answer 2

look, at 14, you're way too youthful to be doing that. There are an infinite quantity of different issues (and NO, on line gaming isn't the only issue) which you're able to be doing. you will do extra harm on your coming up physique than solid. subsequent, because your Dad is an alcoholic, that gene will run on your loved ones, so it extremely is better than probably which you would be extra in hazard of dependancy. Get a activity and maximum of all, get new pals who've some basic experience!

Answer 3

I read about this once- there was a study done in sociology (university level doctorate work) and for alcoholism and the legal system, and the evidence piled up to indicate that while alcohol can LOOSEN up someone's inhibitions (meaning they get less inhibited when inebriated) it actually tends more to obscure the truth- either people intentionally lied or they were too messed up to "realize" what they were really saying.

A deeper study indicated that people who tended to partake in this as a recreational form tended to have more problems with sincerity and relationships with others and themselves over people who didn't find the need to participate in recreational substance abuse.

I'm too tired to dig up links but if you really want to know send me a note and I'll try in the next week (mid-terms = pretty busy).
Peace!

Answer 4

Drink too much and you may tell more than the truth. Alcohol is good for relaxing the drinker and allowing them to let down defenses and sometimes tell more than they should especially to females.

Answer 5

It makes me a pathological liar most of the time. Mostly because I have to lie in the first place to get the alcohol. (I'm absolutely not 21, haha.) But yeah, I do spill alot of my secrets when drunk. =P Depends on how long I've been drinking!

Answer 6

It all depends on your nature. The person you are gets amplified with alcohol. The effects of alcohol are dependent on a variety of factors, including a person's size, weight, age, and sex, as well as the amount of food and alcohol consumed. The disinhibiting effect of alcohol is one of the main reasons it is used in so many social situations.

Answer 8

It just reduces your ability to know what the right thing to say is, in other words if its something that is the truth that probobly shouldn't be revealed, you are more likely to blurt it out under the influence of alchohol, and regret it the next day.

Answer 9

i guess we all know the latin saying "en vino veritas" (meaning "in wine there is truth”), and while drinking can certainly make you feel more comfortable to share deeper thoughts or act out fantasies you consciously tried to imagine you didn't have – in other words, “telling the truth” – I don’t think it’s fair to say that it always does… it just depends on how drunk you are I guess – if you get drunk enough, you don’t even know what the truth is anymore! ;)

Answer 10

not necessarily but it makes some people a lot less inhibited so they may say things that are on their minds that they'd normally keep to themselves or might say more politely. That is why it is best not to have too much to drink in public - it causes fights because people say things they normally wouldn't say.
