I also found myself really stooping to the level of the trolls who would torture me. And it also led to an inordinate number of leaving threads. One can tell how well I am by the difference in my posting.

I had to clean myself up. It certainly wasn't me. It was more of a character than anything else. A kind of Mr Hyde that would come out to play.


You don't think being boozed up removes all filters? Well, ok.... it might work differently for different people I guess. I know normally timid people will become all sorts of outgoing when boozed up...... guys who don't dare approach the hot chick in the bar need a few drinks in them before The Approach...... and other examples. Hell..... the classic example: The proverbial closet and those who come out of it after one too many.
Do u think it can alter behavior, I don’t think it just removes inhibitions though that is part of it


I think if you hold deep-rooted thoughts and feelings, which may be unacceptable in mainstream society, and maybe you have to watch yourself from saying inappropriate things in public......... yes, a few drinks or some select drugs in your system could very well release the torrent. Maybe not for all, but for some.
I have no doubt that is true, alcohol has long been called the social lubricant. What I’m saying is not limited to that but a complete altering of behavior and thought


IMO it doesn't alter behavior or thought. Which is why if you're prone to racist comments when drunk, deep inside you're a racist. Substitute any word for "racist" and you probably have a lot of true statements.
