The primary function of the area of the brain which is known as the cortex is to maintain control over the rest of the brain; this area of the brain is depressed with the presence of even low doses of alcohol. This helps to explain why a person that is drinking is less inhibited and may have a loss of control over judgment.
Alcohol use is involved in approximately 25% to 50% of adolescent and adult deaths associated with water recreation.
When a person's blood alcohol level ranges from .02 g/100ml to .08 g/100ml he/she usually has a change in mood and may have trouble interpreting what he/she sees and hears.
Dependency is the most serious condition since the person needs higher quantities of alcohol to achieve intoxication. Also, if alcohol is reduced or stopped, a dependent alcoholic will experience withdrawal symptoms.
