My social phobia goes away and i can stand being in tight large crowds. Also i like people better when drunk, probably because my analytical/observational sense go out the window...

I lighten up and become more chatty. BUT I also become more clumsy and sometimes more rude and confrontational. TBH I'm an overall nicer person when sober but I'll admit, I might be more fun, lively and talkative when tipsy.

I can react in two different ways.

One of them was the reason I started drinking a few years ago and for some reason alcohol made me more sociable by taking away my shyness and helping me approach others.

The other one is where I end up isolated from others and wondering why do I keep drinking.


Im trying to cut down alcohol, I dont hate it but every now and then I have problems when I overuse it so sometime away from it its not going to do me any harm.

I become more goofy, humourous and extroverted. Much to the enjoyment of my friends who think im great when im drunk, i just don't like getting drunk.

If i've had too much then i suddenly come to the revelation that the hard concrete floor is the most comfortable sleeping surface ever and wonder what all the tramps and homless people moan about. Then wake up in the morning at a location I don't remember getting too without any hangover much to the annoyance of my long suffering friends who had to put up with me.

It takes a lot of drink to get me that drunk about 9 pints at least. Or two whole bottles of wine. Drinking that kind of amount isn't that fun at all. So I usually just end up merry if i do drink. Last night was probably the most i have had to drink in ages, a whole bottle of a decent red to myself with a good meal 8) But thats not really the same thing.

I never had a hangover until I had kids. These days, they're mostly just a mild headache and a general icky feeling that is easily ignored.

I've gotten good at pretending it hurts more, though. For some reason, I've found most people think it's funny. I'm not sure why, but it avoids the awkward "hangovers are no big deal" conversation.

More happy than usual when I'm tipsy, but depressed when I get drunk. I have this burning desire to be more open because I can't express it at all when I'm sober, so when I get drunk, I unleash all my feelings which can be mostly depressing, since I try to show my gratitude as much as I can, as well as happiness in something when sober, but sometimes even I can't find a way to communicate these feelings. It takes me being smashed/hammered/beyond drunk to be this way though.

And I'm a handful sober... But when I'm drunk... It's like Hell came unloose.

I tend to be more socially forthcoming and less anxious.

I get like myself, only more so. So I either withdraw into my own world or start lecturing; I get clumsier, I get more dissociative. Then I fall asleep.

dunno. the last time i was drinking spirits was at about the age of two (stole my mom's glass of wine when she left the kitchen for a minute). but people regularly tell me that i need no alcohol to behave like a drunk.

Less anxious and usually more able to socialise. I usually get more talkative, extroverted and honest when I'm drunk, although if I'm feeling really depressed to begin with then it can make me feel worse and get tearful and sometimes very aggressive.

At about 2 pints of beer/cider, or equivalent, you may perform remarkably better in many areas, but that's it. Most saliently I found I get considerably better at billiards, though socialising and others apply. I speculate this is the point between the benefit of more dopamine neurons firing and the system being too flooded to run effectively. I'm not alone in this assumption:
