The effect of alcohol on a person

After a couple more drinks
  • The drinker may feel emotional and sentimental, or over-excited
  • They may feel more sensitive, and not their 'usual self'
  • They'll become unco-ordinated, feeling wobbly and unbalanced
  • Their senses will be less sharp - they may not be able to see or hear clearly
