Drugs can speed up the CNS aka stimulants Or slow the CNS down aka depressants

Alcohol binds to your GABA receptors another drug categorize that does this is benzodiazepines Alprazolam (Xanax), chlordiazepoxide (Librium), clorazepate (Tranxene), diazepam (Valium), lorazepam (Ativan). all of those drugs are just some benzodiazepines but instead of mimicking GABA, it ramps up GABA's production in the body.
