If you suspect someone of being intoxicated, be aware of some of the most obvious signs. Slurred speech, balance problems and impaired speech are some of the symptoms that can be seen in someone who is intoxicated. They might also have trouble counting change or walk without falling. They may also exhibit extreme mood swings. In some extreme cases, they may even get into fights or annoy others.
Drink counting
Counting the amount of alcohol consumed is the best way to detect signs of intoxication. People don't often pay attention about their drinking habits so obvious signs are often missed. The most obvious symptom is intoxication, but there may be other symptoms like slurred speaking.
People will have different symptoms of intoxication. Some people will show more signs than others. They may need five beers to speak coherently. However, this does not mean they are more drunk than others. In order to determine your BAC, you must count the number of drinks you consume each hour. If you are going to drive, you should stop drinking as soon as you feel intoxicated. Another sign of intoxication is a flushed appearance, chattiness and delayed reactions.
Slurred speech
Slouching is a sign of alcohol intake. This is because alcohol affects the brain and slows down the communication between the brain and other parts of the body. It is an indication that you should quit drinking. Slurred or distorted speech may also indicate other symptoms. You may have contact lenses irritation or bloodshot vision. Some people may have slurred speech naturally.
If in doubt, slurred or distorted speech is the best method to determine if you are intoxicated. However, slurred speech can also be a sign of other medical problems, such as diabetes or allergies. You may also notice a strong alcohol smell on the breath. These symptoms are important to know before you assume that someone is intoxicated.
The aroma of alcohol
One of the best signs that someone has consumed alcohol is the smell. It is easy to detect the smell of alcohol in a person's breath. It can also be found in the person's clothing and skin. Intoxicated people can be more aggressive, talkative, and risky.
Heavy alcohol use can slow the heartbeat or blood flow and affect the brainwaves, which send messages to the heart and the lungs to continue blood flow. These symptoms indicate that the person may be already drunk and require immediate medical attention.
Measuring alcohol concentration
A person's blood alcohol level is the best method to diagnose alcohol-related intoxication. Blood alcohol concentration (BAC), is a measure of the alcohol content in a person's blood. It depends on how many and how long they have been drinking. It can also vary depending on a person's metabolism. The most accurate way to determine alcohol impairment is by measuring blood alcohol concentration. However, this is not all that matters. Alcohol tolerance is another variable that can affect the individual. It may also be affected by genetics or chronic alcohol use.
Blood alcohol levels can affect coordination and judgment. A high BAC could make it difficult for a person to drive and cause problems with walking. A person with a low BAC might feel lighter-headed or more relaxed. They might also have difficulty breathing.
