    the mood you are in before the drinking begins sets the tone

    Hi I know this thread is about drinking and anger but I've got a problem i turn into a complete slut when I've had drink, I was a bit like that when I was younger but the last couple of months it's started to happen again. Il kiss or do more with people I don't even fancy and I'm putting myself into dangerous situations. I just recently took an sti test and was saying to myself I'm not going to do a one night stand again cause it's not worth it and then I ended up getting really pissed and doing it again. I would never do stuff like that sober but why do I act like that when I'm drunk?

    OK - People who drink alcohol extensively and cause a fight or bottles someone or just get Leary or aggressive - are they already an aggressive person or a person with a short temper to start off with and the alcohol just accelerates it even further, or is it the drink that lowers barriers and inhibitions and is so mood changing that it can change a placid person to a raving loony monster?

    Here is the way I look at it, but i am not an expert. That people who are very laid back and dont have a temper just drink or get drunk and pass out , or act all silly and laugh and fall over things and puke up everywhere - whereas people who get drunk and want to fight someone or starts kicking stuff or get into a rage , they already (before drinking) are volatile people to start off with and that the drinking just accelerates their mood/temper.

    What do you reckon? - any truth in what I say or do you not agree?

    Drinking milk is far far worse for people with tempers!

    Theres no reason to act loud or aggressive or even very silly when drunk. They did tests on young people having their first drink, without any preconceived notions of affects alcohol has on you and it just made them mellow and relaxed. Not stupid and loud, we act stupid and loud because we consider it socially acceptable to become stupid and loud if were drunk.

    Being drunk isn't an excuse for annoying other people around you in town, yeh you were drunk but you're also an inconsiderate ****. I did it when I was 16. I grew up, genuinely feel embrassaed when I see drunk people in theirs 20's and 30's falling over themselves and screaming and shouting in town at nighttime
