Is it true that alcohol triggers the region of the brain responsible for honesty, so an intoxicated person is more likely to tell the truth?

Hmm... I do hear about this though but I don't really know how true this is. It's something I also noticed about people who drink to stupor because they tend to say more truthful things sometimes but we tend to ignore them because we do believe they are drunk.

There was a day i saw a drunkard who drank and smoked such that he got high just like they use to say. I saw him telling his intimate friend directly that "he is gonna shook him with broken bottle because he has been looking at him all this while". I tried to calm both of them down due to a little misunderstanding that occurred between them. I was able to interrogate the drunkard's friend about his friend telling him such statement.

I was actually astonished by the reply I got from his friend which is "He is actually telling the truth when he said he would shook me with broken bottles. He was able to voice out because of what he consumed as this will give boost his morale to say or do anything." I was able to conclude that some people are not actually your true friends because they maybe deceiving you or they act like hypocrite but smoking and drinking sometimes reveal their true behavior.

In conclusion, I think it may apply to some people and not everyone who drinks to stupor is likely to be honest.

Thanks for reading and I hope this helps.
