A variety of factors influence the absorption process of alcohol, including the presence of food and the type of food that is in the stomach when alcohol is consumed; the actual rate of which the alcohol is absorbed depends largely on how quickly the stomach empties its contents into the intestine.
An average sized woman would have to drink 10-14 beers or glasses of wine within a relatively short period of time to reach the lethal blood alcohol concentration of 0.4%.
Alcohol consumption can play a role in causing depression; the irony of this is that many people drink alcohol in an effort to alleviate their low mood. The higher the amount of alcohol that is consumed, the greater the number of symptoms of depression. However, symptoms of depression have been reported to decrease dramatically or disappear completely alcohol abstinence.
The physical symptoms of alcohol dependence include an overwhelming compulsion to drink, the inability to stop or control one's drinking, and the need to drink larger amounts of alcohol in order to get the same effect, which is referred to as developing a tolerance.
