To be '''drunk''' is to have been [[drinking|drinking alcohol]] to the point that normal daily functioning is inhibited.  Some common signs include slurring of speech, poor motor skills such as an inability to walk in a straight line, and a general lack of control over emotions and speech content.  Continuous drinking can lead to unconsciousness and even death.

Public drunkenness is a crime in many states.

Waking up the next day from a drunken state can result in a hangover - a bad headache combined with sound sensitivity, upset stomach and tiredness.

==Drinking and Driving==
 +
Due to the disabilities caused by excessive drinking, laws have been passed requiring that a persons Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) be below a certain percentage. In the United States, drivers with BAC levels higher than the legal limit are charged with either [[driving while intoxicated]] (DWI) or driving under the influence (DUI) depending on the state. Drunk drivers lead to the deaths of many innocent people each year.
