"As soon as alcohol enters the brain, brain circuits begin to adjust to minimize the perturbations caused by alcohol and return circuits to baseline levels of functioning. As a result of this acute tolerance, when the alcohol wears off, activity in circuits that were suppressed by alcohol now overshoot baseline levels of activity," he added.
"Similarly, circuits initially activated by alcohol might be less active for a while when the alcohol wears off.
