Cannabis Substitution Harm Reduction
7
Alcoholism- chronic and relapsing
nCompulsive and constricted behavior patterns, which were
present during sobriety, changed markedly during intoxication, with increased
verbalization, varied expression of feelings, increased interaction, and
frequent behavioral regression. During inebriation, psychic defenses appeared
weakened with significant reduction of repression and reaction formation.”
(Tamert and Mendelsohn 1969)
