Does alcohol usually affect your mood and make you aggresive?

Alcohol does effect: Mood and can contribute to aggressive behavior. Alcohol is a depressant, every drop! the "high" we feel is related to disinhibition and not to a lifting of mood. Any depression can include anger, rage and aggression.
