Feeling drunk

Is it normal to not care for drinking till like 6 beers in, then you feel like drinking. Like not drunk, or buzzed really. More or less for myself I feel like a normal person at this point. Still able to process cognitively, and come up with ideas, able to solve complex mathematical equations. And even focus, and understand things easier as I am no longer over-thinking. Like I can actually enjoy life at this level (feel like my true self). Sometimes it takes 12 beers to reach this point, has been a few months since I last drank though fortunately (unfortunately I have to wake up in 3 hours). But it takes so much effort of distraction to have myself drink this much. Once I reach the "buzz" point or point of normalcy in my case I want to drink. And it will take another 6-12 beers before I am actually buzzed and another 3-6 before I am drunk. Though due to my low body weight, I must cut myself off prematurely due to alcohol poisoning. My buzz point is 70-80% alcohol level which is ridiculous to become drunk is to risk dying when that one sip takes me over the limit and causes me to pass out.

  • OP you are almost certainly developing a tolerance to the booze as well. That's definitely not a good thing.

    I am truly overjoyed that, "all my digital notes are eligible and well presented considering my "sober" writings."
    I rest my case!

    • I rush too much when I am sober,and the end result is a maze of sentences and chicken scratch. I have patience, however greatly over think things. Which leads to multiple documents rather then one stream lined case.

    Your post is so much like the excuses so many give to the cop when trying to defend themselves in a DUI situation.
    Unless you are about 400 pounds, after 12 beers you are NOT "Still able to process cognitively", but because of the of the booze, you THINK you are.
    If you think you are more your normal self after 6 beers, then once again it is the booze talking and not your rational mind.

    • I was working on compression conceptualisations regarding NTFS file systems in conjunction with application containers, in addition to the phonetic development of AlphaBet to form a new language. All my hand writing from yesterday, all my digital notes are eligible and well presented considering my "sober" writings. My mind is a cavern of madness without a governor. I say I feel normal because the "ADD/ADHD" like nature going on with the voices in my head are gone. Am able to focus on one thing for once. It really takes a lot to impair to that point, is why I stopped drinking to become drunk or buzzed for that point as I normally can't reach that point anymore. Yesterday was one of those rare days. Finished at 7 (are 473 tall cans is probably why), 3 more would have made me pretty buzzed, another 2-5 would have been the road to a drunk man spread across the floor. :P
