When I'm drunk, I'm usually very bubbly. I space out a lot, but everything seems laughable and I feel very light emotionally. It slows down my thinking a lot, so I'm definitely not as overwhelmed. I feel like more of a person, honestly. People like talking to me and being around me when I'm that way. I'm lucky that I'm underage and can rarely get ahold of alcohol, otherwise I could see it becoming another addiction! The effects are completely amazing in my experience.

I'm a $lutty or sad drunk. At my drunkest, I've either ended up spending the night sobbing with friends trying to console me or trying to sleep with as many people as possible.

In small amounts, I'm just more outgoing and friendly and come out of my shell, but any more than that and it's a disaster.

I'm also a very slutty/sad drunk but I'll also get really happy one second and super sad the next, and I'll be looking for someone to hook up with.. Once I have a bit of alcohol I'll want more and it rarely stops till I have to go home or till I'm sleeping at someones place.. If I can't get any more alcohol for whatever reason I'll get depressed and sometimes suicidal, and once I can feel the alcohol starting to wear off I'll also get suicidal. I've only tried to kill myself once while drunk though, but I'm depressed every time I can feel the alcohol wearing off :( When I can feel the effects the most I'm always super happy, fearless and I almost feel complete, and it feels like I'm at the right place and I want it to stay that way forever and the next second I feel so empty, thinking about how these feelings will eventually go away, and that's when I feel a need to find a one night stand or go to one of my booty calls, cause I start to feel so alone and it seems like the only way to make the sadness go away.. It's like this every time not drinking at home >.<

When I'm home though I still want more alcohol once I've started, but I'm very different when I'm at home and drinking.. At home I don't feel like I have to find someone to sleep with, I just want to relax and keep the buzz mildly going untill I'm getting sleepy, and I'll sleep like a baby without overthinking everything like I usually do before going to sleep.. Occasionally I'll get that lonely feeling but it's mostly when I'm out and drinking..

So yeah.. Alcohol has a power over me like nothing else I guess.. I haven't tried a drug that will ever make my feelings more intense than when I'm drinking..

If I am in a reasonable mood beforehand I become overly confident, flirty, risk-taking, bubbly. If I am in an angry mood or I have been holding in anger or stress beforehand I become very self-absorbed in my conversations and obsessive, then after a while I usually get violent and occasionally blackout drunk and assault people (lucky for me nobody has taken it personally so far and forgave me immediately). If I was depressed beforehand I just get more and more severely depressed, cry a lot and spiral into suicidal thoughts.

The problem isn't alcohol, the problem is how much I consume, it magnifies my emotions and mood with each drink.. I know my limits but sometimes I just don't care. I have drank so much alcohol before that my whole night was remembered as one big acid trip and have been hospitalized. Getting drunk isn't as much fun when you make an ass of yourself.. or throw up all over yourself, smack your head on the edge of a table corner and blackout choking on your own vomit... pee your pants while unconscious... doctors telling you that you might need a new liver this time...

Cheers :D *clink*

Fist fight? :lol: I only ever drank whisky. I hate beer.

I'd also like to add I don't go around beating people up, per the NPD board. I need to get off of here tonight. :lol:

I'm usually the flirty/bubbly/silly drunk, who is increasingly sexual, though sometimes I will also just be quiet and be very "in my head." It really depends on the night. I don't think I've ever gotten the sad drunk.

I'm female, so there's that. :lol:

I'm female but I'm curious as to how you define a stereotypical douchebag guy. :?:
