alcohol and aggression

The case illustrates a widespread problem that is associated with alcohol abuse. As different studies show, alcohol consumption and the associated aggressive behavior can be very different. Scientists do not agree on the exact mechanisms based on alcohol aggression, but factors such as brain effect, hormone levels and socialization are crucial. People who grew up in violent environments or have experienced violence tend to react more aggressively, especially under the influence of alcohol, such as mywaybettyford.de

A particularly worrying aspect is the impairment of the impulse control with an alcohol content of 0.5 per thousand. It is therefore not surprising that consumption of one or two beer can already lead to an increase in aggressiveness. The changes in the prefrontal cortex influence the decision -making and react to provocative situations.

extended arson

Similar incidents were also observed in the Region. On October 1, a man who set a paper waste bin in a barn near Hohenbrucher Straße was observed. The 26-year-old had a breath alcohol value of 1.4 per thousand when he was arrested and confessed to the arson. His motifs were based on personal frustration and alcohol problems, as from the press release of the Brandenburg .

Both incidents urgently illuminate the dangers associated with excessive alcohol consumption. In both cases, alcohol and aggressive behaviors led to criminal consequences. The challenge will be to tackle such problematic behavioral patterns in society to prevent such incidents
