Alcohol does not actually make everyone feel happy. Instead initial feelings of euphoria due to increased release of dopamine in the brain is followed by depression, disorientation & memory loss when the blood alcohol level goes above 0.05 blood alcohol content (BAC). With higher BAC excitement, confusion, stupor, coma & death can occur. So extreme caution is advised with alcohol. I wish you well!
