What happens to the brain of someone who drinks alcohol?

Alcohol has a profound effect on the complex structures of the brain. It blocks chemical signals between brain cells (called neurons), leading to the common immediate symptoms of intoxication, including impulsive behavior, slurred speech, poor memory, and slowed reflexes.

Explanation:

Alcohol consumption can lead to severe damage in these parts of the brain, which subsequently leads to multiple issues such as short-term memory loss, decreased brain cells, depression, mood changes, poor sleep and alcohol dependence.
