Well my friend, first of all what is your purpose of drinking alcohol? If its just about relaxation then there are plenty of alternatives... coffee and tea are the best.
Are you out of our mind? Tea and coffee are stimulants, and they act just the opposite of what alcohol does. That is why we have tea or coffee before starting work. Alcohol is a relaxant, and it helps you to settle down after a day of hard work.

after work= alcohol, which is a good depressant for those stressful hours of work.
the real impact of drinking alcohol is simply to help people with their social skills and generally just the best relaxation beverage
