This is serious for me. No bull, I been around here time from time and I know there can be very silly non serious questions. Anyway, lets get started shall we?

1: Why is it that drinking seems to make me more creative, awake, happy, social, and full of ideas?

2: I claim to be free, but lately I been thinking I am more in pain than free, and free is a word that people rather fool themselves in believing rather than a depression pain, how can I fix this?

3: How is it that I can care so much and then the next not care at all and do things out of spite? Am I crazy? Because at this point I don't know if I am a good guy with a potential bad side, or a bad guy with a potential good side...

4: I feel lost, even though I feel that I know myself, but I have these personalities that tend to take over, but at the same time I am aware of, because it is more of that I am in touch with myself. I just feel like that I am not completely connected, and that my mindset is meant for a different time period. I feel lost, yet comforted and troubled at the same time, I care but I don't care, that switches on and off. What causes me to be okay and angel like one minute and a non caring demon the next? Am I possessed? Should I seek a person of faith to cast this darkside out? Wtf is wrong with me?

    Alcohol, like many drugs, changes our thinking. Some people create, some get depressed, others become annoying. The rest of your questions are normal. Nothing is wrong with you.

    Oooh I like these kinds of questions!

    1. Alcohol, it's a social lubricant and by social lubricant it really means that it lowers your risk judgement making you feel more confident when in reality you are taking more risks than what your sober self would allow. As for feeling happy it acts as a depressant lowering your depression temporarily. (Limit your drinking as I've seen way too many people over do it for its minor benefits)

    2. You do need some social obligations to be happy. Since humans are social animals we are hardwired to need to be appreciated by others. Join a club or go to church. You are free to make your own decisions so it's up to you how you spend your free time. Helping the community wouldnt take that much out of you.

    3. Questioning your morality: it's a lifelong experience to judge whether you are an actual good person or not. Religon comes in to give answers, or you can do some homework and learn some philosophy and create your own moral compass and boundaries. That will help you maintain a sense of self.

    4. You arent possessed. You just might have some motivational issues, which is completely normal. What you have to dig deep into is why exactly you feel like you need to jump from activity to activity to apathy. It's up to you how you decide on where you'll be in 1,5,10 years in the future. Pick a goal and stick to it. Your life just kinda sprouts around that goal.

    Not advocating for drug usage here but some marijuana soul searching might be what you need. I'm emotionally disconnected from myself constantly. Weed honestly propped open the lines of communication between my logical mind and my soul. Now I do not need to smoke weed anymore. I have grown to not need outside substances to maintain internal happiness.

    I feel like I was in your situation a two years ago. Agonizing about the plight of my existance and mind. As I aged and started to put things into perspective I have found that I've gotten more mature and more wholesome about my lot in life.

    Thanks again for the post. I needed to write answers to fix someones problems. Such as you needed some outside perspectives to help you out. Have a fantastic life! :D

    Based on your first question followed by the other ones I'd say you just have a drinking problem. Side effects from addictions can vary and cause all sorts of things like moodswings, depression, confusion, dissociation etc. You need to try to stay away from alcohol for a while and see what kind of effect that has on these issues you describe. Then at least you can rule that out as a potential cause.
