thanks for your attention

Basal ganglia: changes the way a person reacts to the stimuli linked with drinking alcohol: people, the places or clues associated with the consumption of alcohol (glasses, pubs, friends...). Facing these stimuli repeatedly may trigger strong urges to drink alcohol leading to compulsive drinking.

Prefrontal cortex: Responsible for decision making, (the capacity to organize thoughts and activities and rank the priorities of tasks to perform, manage time): might be affected in a person suffering from alcohol drinking disorder.
Steven's story
Hippocampus: makes memories of your life Alcohol can cause a blackout: the person can not remember what they did while they were drinking.
Cerebellum: helps walk, run, dance and keep one's balance. Alcohol can make a person unsteady on their feet and more likely to get injured.
Nucleus accumbens: responds to things that help one survive and thrive- like delicious food. Alcohol tricks this part of the brain, making alcohol seen as even more rewarding than food and drinks.

Amygdala: intensified activation of the brain's stress system - or an excessive source of stress - in the amygdala contributes to anxiety, irritability and angst.
