  • Although many drinkers speak of getting high, and initially experience alcohol as a stimulant, alcohol is actually a depressant.
  • Blackouts most likely occur because the function of the hippocampus, the part of the brain that registers memory, is depressed by alcohol; whether these memories do not get registered or whether they become registered but cannot be retrieved, have not been determined.
  • In 1998, binge drinking was responsible for 15,935 road accidents that took place in the United States.
  • A recent government conducted medical study indicates that people with a variant of the DRD2 gene (a gene associated with dopamine function in the brain) may be more prone to receive pleasure from drinking; since this gen merely relates to the pleasure associated with drinking, this research cannot conclude that DRD2 causes alcohol dependence.
