How to Tell if Someone is Intoxicated: 5 Signs of Intoxication
How to Recognize an Intoxicated Person
Everyone who drinks runs the danger of consuming alcohol excessively. Unfortunately, some people don’t know how to manage their alcohol intake. This changes a person’s behavior and makes it difficult to manage their actions. It can therefore increase the risk of an awful and unexpected outcome.
So how can you tell if a person is showing signs of intoxication? The person will exhibit symptoms of drunkenness in their behavior, coordination, and appearance. The following are examples of the behavioral cues a person may display:
1. Becoming talkative or loud indicates lowered inhibitions
2. Using foul language or misbehaving, indicating impaired judgment
3. Moving very slowly or unfocused eyes displaying slowed reactions
4. Stumbling or swaying indicates a loss of coordination
The list does not include many intoxication rate factors, which we shall discuss later.
