The results strongly suggest that the mechanism of depression after alcohol drinking may be related to serotonin.
We examined tryptophan and serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) levels in the blood after consumption of alcohol.

The diurnal rhythm of 5-HT in subjects who the day before had drunk alcohol was quite different...

Practicing a Rule of Life with others moves us against the grain of our individualistic culture.
Practicing a Rule of Life with others moves us against the grain of our individualistic culture.
