There is nothing good or bad in this world, everything preserves its status in reference to the situations and comparisons to the others. Whether it is about human beings, animals or any other non living thing. Alcohol is one of those things which often confuse people about its consumption and consequences. Many people loose their lives because of this liquid, whereas there are other people too who have taken alcohol as a medicine for physical, mental and emotional relief for centuries. In this article we are going to talk about the ups and downs of alcohol, not chemically but emotionally.
Social interactions
Alcohol is often involved in celebrations, social gatherings and seeking out emotional and mental relief when we are sad or broken. It can really help in breaking down barriers, encouraging conversations and forge connections between individuals. It can be a positive catalyst in enhancing a good relationship between two people by allowing them to create a good platform and peaceful environment where they are free to share their feelings whether they are good or bad. It happens because it provides guts in people to open up with themselves and talk with full honesty, which either strengthen their relationship or make a clear understanding about their future. It is good in both conditions, because it eliminates all the doubts and confusions. Though, it can be done without the help of alcohol, however most of the people are weak and cannot initiate the talk. There comes the alcohol which allows them to listen to their inner selves, which is the true self.
The ephemeral
Though, moderate alcohol consumption has been linked to the release of endorphins and dopamine, neurotransmitters associated with feelings pleasure and reward, but still it also need to kept in mind that it is of temporary nature which does not last for much long. This temporary relief from things can be very good for the moment in order to enjoy it, but it can never be good for the life because it does not teach you to stand in tough situations, rather it provides you ways to escape from the reality. It is very good that you are able to feel pleasure and free in situations where you need to, but it is even better if understand the fact that it is not going to last for long, so depending on this liquid is not the solution of your root cause. It can definitely give you the courage to initiate the negotiation and talk about your problems, which is a good sign, but as soon as you get that ignition you should come to your original consciousness which has been taken away from you by alcohol.
The downside
Where alcohol reinforces social bonds, creates long lasting memories and provides emotional relief, it can also lead to a range of negative consequences. It is very crucial to recognize the potential downsides of alcohol consumption. The negative consequences include addiction, health problems, impaired judgment and strained relationships. What could be helpful for enhancing social interactions can quickly spiral into dependency and become a source without which you can never get relief. After that you are never free until you take a drink. Apart from this mental and emotional connection to the alcohol, it can severely damage your physical body you are addicted.
Now, you can sense and make an estimate on your own that alcohol is not a good or bad thing, rather it is just a thing which can be made good or bad on the basis of its consumption and that too depends on which occasions you prefer to consume it. One more thing that is left to be addressed here is the quantity. It also plays a very important role while drinking alcohol. More consumption often ruins the vibes of the party, and at the end you are left with either very bad memories or the feeling that you would never do that again in your life, whereas limited consumption creates long lasting memories and allow you to enjoy more with e feeling that this moment should not end.
At the end, i would like to make a statement which simplifies that alcohol can, no doubt, provide you the sensation you require at the moment and it can be useful in many ways as discussed earlier in this article, however it should be made a permanent source of joy in life as it limits other sources which are real and not temporary like alcohol.
Understand the ephemeral effects of alcohol.
