Morphology
disinhibition = disinhibit (semi-transparent) = dis + inhibit + ion

Etymology
Disinhibition is made from dis- 'not' and inhibition 'holding back', so you can picture the brain's 'brakes' being removed. That's why brain damage or some medicines can make reflexes and automatic actions stronger and less controlled.
