Unfiltered Truth: Alcohol and Your Personality

“Alcohol doesn’t create a new personality… it reveals the one you normally keep hidden.

Here’s what actually happens: When you drink, your prefrontal cortex — the part

of the brain that controls judgment, restraint, and impulse control — starts to shut

down. With that filter weakened, your real impulses and emotions get

louder. That’s why some people become funnier, some get angry, and others suddenly

get bold or brutally honest. Those traits were always there. Alcohol just turns

off the part of your brain that keeps them quiet. So… is your drunk self the truth,

or just the unfiltered version? Follow for more brain science.”**
