I believed 14 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 4: myself to be allergic. I've never fully looked into it. 15 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: Really. Yeah, that's kind of cool. It's good for you 16 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: because that I was not good for you. But I 17 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: like it. 18 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, you seem like you really like it. 19 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: I like it because I have anxiety, so it helps 20 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: reduce my anxiety. Okay, it attacks the Gabba receptors in 21 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: your brain. 22 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: Is that a real receptor? Yeah, that's a fun name. 23 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 24 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's it called gab gabba receptor? 25 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: Yeah? So xanax and alcohol work the same way. They 26 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: like block a receptor, and that's why it uh makes 27 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: you black out because the way the sometimes sometimes the 28 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: way your anxiety works in your brain the same routes, 29 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: the same pathways. I'm not an expert in this but 30 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: the same pathways for memory control the neu chemicals responsible 31 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: for anxiety. So what alcohol does is block certain receptors, 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: so you feel less anxiety. But you your memory, your 33 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: your your short termed long term memory, the way that's converted. 34 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 2: Uh, fucked up, that's the technical term. 35 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what a doctor told me.
