What's the point of consuming alcohol?
I've never had alcohol, and I know a lot of people who are addicted to it. So what's the point? No, I'm not considering drinking, just asking out of curiosity. How does it make you feel?
Answers:
Alcohol can lower inhibitions and offer mild feeling of euphoria. It also dulls the senses which is why many people use the phrase "take the edge off'.
People generally feel more relaxed, loose and carefree under the influence of even small amounts of ethyl alcohol.
Its consumption is also a social convention used in a variety of settings from social to business and has been so for thousands of years.
As with anything its best in moderation and its abuse can turn mild effects into more severe and dangerous ones.
If you're fine without it then don't worry about it. It's not for everyone.
