Autistic Drunk Experiences

That is being drunk xd

There's definitely a perfect combination of alcohol and prior mental sharpness that results in "philosopher's drunk." It's that level of neurochemical change that allows the brain to make novel connections and whatnot. It's old writer's drunk. You may even feel more clear headed than when you were sober, especially if you were soberly nervous about a social situation with drinking. Sounds to me like you were somewhere in there.

I'm considered to be quite a pleasant drunk. I tend to giggle a lot and be generally quite jovial. I also seem to have fewer problems with physical intimacy than I normally do and will be happy to hug people (hugging is generally a big no no for me). I also find that I'm a lot less vigilant about my symptoms and find it harder to resist stimming, avoiding eye contact and generally a tactless weirdo. But then I think most people are like this when they are drunk, though.I remember a few times I was out drinking and my friends noticed that I was rocking on my chair a lot. I didn't even notice until they told me.

I'm a non alcohol drinker personally, haven't hade one in a year so I should have a low tolerance, anyway I don't think I can get drunk, once I did not know what I was drinking and I had enough that people were daring me to walk up and down the stairs without using the handrails and I did fine, I felt no different and my thinking did not chance. Once when I was a teen I was drinking some highly alcoholic drinks as I later found out, again I thought I was drinking regular juice or something, I downed quite a few to the point that to this day people comment on my drinking and I never got drunk, every one else did though. One other time I drank a few glasses of wine, hard to tell how many because of the refilling and the same thing, no change. I have yet to understand why alcohol makes people feel better or what the big deal is. Maybe I have to try harder?

I think it's kind of a gamble. At one point i lived in a housing thing with two people with aspergers, one of them seemed to handle drinking well to the point that it actually helped him, the other one did it to forget his problems and ended up in a lot of trouble (he threw a guy through a store window 'cause he thought he was being insulted). He also ended up alcoholic, and i think he still is.

See what it does for you, and don't make it too much of a lifestyle - alcohol might work for some things, but it's not healthy to overdo it.

I just swear more.

Hmm, it seems like my first time was more of what everybody here described. My sensitivities lowered and I became outgoing, but I was with family, everyone around me was drunk, and pretty much just laughed the whole time. I think it may have had something to do with my environment because the second time, it was quiet and late. There was no one to talk to other than my sister. I guess I will see next time then!

I'm another who tends to be more talkative etc. when drunk but I believe that happens with most people, NT or not. I have found, however, that if I overdrink, my symptoms become far worse than they normally are; I result to rocking (back and forth when sitting) or shaking my legs, things I rarely/don't do anyways. It makes sense in a way, that the fronts I put up every day in terms of sociability fade away when I'm no longer able to process them.

I was wondering if anyone else experiences this?

All depends on situation. Like if I am going to a club, I will get anxious and hyper but if I go to a bar it's nice and chill. Drinking in my flat with friends is the best, I can drank like a pro

I haven't been properly drunk yet. When I drink my cheeks occasionally get flushed. I also notice that I get hyper and kind of floaty. I get that feeling when I have brainfog, so it's not unique to drinking. I also laugh and talk a bit more. Don't know if that's the alcohol or just placebo.

I have seen many drunken person and some are become more funny when they are drunken and some are very rash and that kind of person will check each and every chance to fight with other peoples

I've never had very much to drink but even small amounts seem to change me. Most I've ever had is 3 units.

Based on what people have told me, I become less shy and speak more. However... I just go monotonous and repeat things and generally be uninteresting to talk to even more so than unusual.

I also become... annoying. I will just keep jumping for no damn reason, spin in circles, run around everywhere, roll myself around, rock... I just feel so full of energy for a reason I can't figure out, alcohol shouldn't do that, right?

But I always seem to be very happy. Everything becomes funny.

I don't even know how I'd sum
that up. Just seems to get rid of the part of me controlling my behaviour. The brain. Makes me think less and do what I like... which is a lot of running around laughing, apparently.

Well, at least I don't get angry or sad. I'd take being... silly?... any day. Worst I'll do is repeatedly hi-five you. Catastrophic.

I have a habit of taking drink to the extreme. What's the point of drinking unless you get drunk? Sometimes it calms me down, but if I'm giddy before I have a drink - watch out!

Having said this, I'm sticking to my sobriety plan!

I've had plenty of really good times drinking but its also got me into a ton of trouble at the same time. My inhibitions are non exisestant along with my fear of talking to women, and am too quick to get into some confrontation to "prove myself" has led to more trouble then it was worth.

My friends loved having me along drinking and I was kind of known as a tank with a bullet proof stomach. But just because my drunkingness didn't end in me spilling my guts I paid for it watching videos or seeing pictures taking of me being a complete ass or even waking up in a jail cell and taking a signature bond to get out of jail.

Also even though I felt so sexually confident while drunk makes for an awkward encounter the next time you have to see her or talk to her... Or you get to drunk and end up with a case of the whiskeydik, that always makes you feel better about yourself especially when it gets made public!

Alcohol tends to make me more cheerful and relaxed, and easier to enjoy things.

I don't know how it affects my social skills or communication, as I always drink alone.

When I am drunk, from a social perspective I become more NT like while from a rational perspective I cannot stop talking about science.

I become less likely to resist the urge to talk about things that I am hesitant to talk about while sober because I know they're situationally inappropriate. Explanations of my special interests come out. At parties in college, I would walk around with headphones on listening to my own choice of music while singing along with it and making jokes about it (that probably weren't funny to anyone but me) to anyone who would listen. There was something deliberate about it, though. I wanted to do that all the time, but I wanted to get drunk at a party so I could have an excuse to talk about all the things I had been thinking about.
