Why does a man lose control on his body after drinking alcohol?

Please answer in detail.

The same reason they lose the ability to drive a car — loss of motor skills. While driving a car is much harder than walking, if you drink enough, you’ll eventually lose that motor skill as well.

Can you become schizophrenic when you are beyond really really drunk or even just drinking?

This may sound ridiculous but when I drink, I can never remember hardly anything that happend the night before, I can’t control how much I drink either, I just want to keep going and going..And by the end of the night I am not even me anymore, I feel like a completely different person has taken over myself. I seriously feel as if I become schizophrenic and have the symptoms of a schizophrenic person..Someone explain what might be going on please

No that is called delusion.

you do not get a mental disorder, but Alcohol does cause some symptoms when abused.

look them up.

Drinking Less Instead of Completely Sober?

I know most people advocate no alcohol ever again if you’ve had trouble controlling your drinking, but has anyone made it work by just reducing your alcohol intake? What about a temporary stop and gradually beginning to drink in moderation again.

Again, don’t want to hear any speechs from teetotallers. Just want to know some less-discussed alternatives.

Sorry this is a copy and paste from the internet, but is was an interesting question which I thought deserved a little research. got the info from the site listed further down.

The most thorough research (Helzer et al., 1985) studied five and seven-year outcomes on 1,289 diagnosed and treated alcoholics, and found only 1.6 percent were successful moderate drinkers. Of this tiny fraction, most were female and all showed few clear symptoms of true alcoholism. In any case, it would be unethical to suggest to any patient a goal with a failure rate of 98.4 percent. Madsen concluded one of the better reviews of the Sobell experiments by saying, "In not place does the experiment demonstrate that a single alcoholic has learned to control his drinking totally: (1974, p. 75 and 11988). Finally, Pendery and Maltzman (AAAS Science, July 9, 1982) exposed the failure of the Sobell work, using hospital and police records and direct contact to show that 19 of their 20 subjects did not maintain sobriety in social drinking, and the other was probably not a true alcoholic to begin with.

will drinking lemon green tea mess up my birth control?

i’ve recently started drinking lemon green tea to burn a few calories;
but have heard that doing so will reduce the chance f my birth control pills to work.
is this true? i dont want another baby!

the only things that truly affect birth control is a) not taking it at the same time everyday b) allowing your pack of pills to reach temperatures over room temp. c) dietary herbal supplements and d) antibiotics. I dont believe that this tea will inhibit your birth control, it’s not a dietary supplement like Hydroxycut, etc. Read your warnings front to back, I’ve never seen anything on my pack o pills :)

How long before I get pregnant do I quit smoking, drinking, and my birth control pill?

Um…I’m not a chain smoker or an alcoholic. I smoke occasionally and drink about once or twice a month. I just wanted a rouch estimate of how long before I get pregnant should I stop.

if ur pregnant or think u could be pregnant you shouldnt be doing any of them at all. and you should go to ur doctor and confirm if you are pregnant or not. if you can quit smoking then why r you stilll smoking. i quit smoking and i feel alot better everyday.

Will drinking a lot of water help detox all the birth control out of my system?

I have been on birth control for almost 9 years and my husband and I are ready to conceive. Now we’re all excited about getting pregnant ASAP. I know that people trying to get drugs out of their system to pass a drug test drink lots or water to detox themselves. I figure the same thing should work for birth control. What do you think, and what are your experiences?

Each chemical is different and may react differently in the body. Some are soluble in water while others are not; some break down quickly while others reside in the body’s tissues for years.

So the specific type of chemical that a person is exposed to may make a difference in how it affects them.

Binge Drinking vs Binge Eating?

Why is it when someone binge drinks alcohol they are told told to go to AA and stop drinking entirely, but if someone is bulimic and eats massive quantities of food they are not told to stop eating food but taught how to control it?

Why can’t someone who drinks too much once or twice a month when they go clubbing be taught/learn how to drink in moderation? Why does it have to be all or nothing when it comes to alcohol?

Does anybody have a more realistic solution on how to control drinking too much in an evening out BESIDES AA or not going out or drinking at all…?
Good answer Raynsy, this is the kind of answer I was looking for!

Why is it that that after years of medical research, almost the only thing that is offered is AA, a "spiritual solution" to a behavioral/medical problem?

AA is a weird splinter group of a Christian sect, the Oxford group that broke from traditional Protestantism that promoted Hitler:
