Intoxication

The one I am focusing on is alcoholic mental states, and what this state of mind means. I was just thinking about this and I was wondering whether getting drunk induces a person to a more primal state than is usually possible, any thoughts?

    Oct 7 2012: Alcohol intoxication results in a state of euphoria and lowered social inhibitions. Intoxication causes most people to derail from socially acceptable behaviour; and it also results in loss of body coordination and erratic behaviour.
    So much about this is online; cases of domestic violence, sex crimes and traffic offences are linked to it.
