Is it normal/true the truth comes out when you’re drinking?

Drinking can bring out the truth yes, but I think it also skews what you think as well. Like you may think something and say it, but it could be way more dramatized than it is when you're sober.

It might but you need to wade thru a bunch of bullshit to get to it.

Drunkenness is more like a bad dream state where anything that pops into your head is spewed out, usually multiple times ad nauseum.

I have admitted stuff I wouldn't have admitted otherwise while drinking.

Ditto. My ENFP goddess of physical love had the same BPD disorder. At the 18th month mark, she started playing head games. I left after a couple of days because I knew I had to protect my mind, but it was another two years before I was ready to get back into the game. Whew, that kind of babe steals your soul and you can't even feel it.

I don't think alcohol is a truth serum.

Alcohol lowers one's inhibitions so there is a chance that they could admit to something they are hiding, but it is not a guarantee of anything. I'm sure there are lots who can lie even when under the influence of alcohol(myself included).

No!

Yes it can make you say things that you withheld, but it can also make you say things which aren't true.

It lowers inhibition.

Know something? ENFP women are good in the sack; spellbinding actually. I know the chemistry of which you speak. After a year and a half, things start falling apart during the daytime, though. The girlfriend I always felt the most harmony with (but not the most excitement) was an ISTJ. Finally, she dumped me. Fuck, what a disappointment.

*still working on my exoplanet panspermia response for you.

Actually, INTJs outnumber every other personality type at IIN. See the results to the following post.

Also my step dad. He gets very distructed but he also let things go than when he is sober

Yes. When my mom drinks, that’s when she start getting emotional and talk about her shit in the past. Like I get it but she does it over and over again

Like cipro says, alcohol lowers inhibitions. It's not for nothing that the Romans had the adage 'In vino veritas'.

There are certainly people who are capable of lying when drunk - just take a look around in any bar where guys are trying to pick up women. But I do think your true character comes to the surface when you're under the influence. Some people turn into rage-filled maniacs, others become blubbering emotional wrecks and so on.

I just fall asleep. Since I'm fundamentally a lazy bastard, that's a pretty accurate reflection of my true character.

What's the point of drinking, anyway?

I’m an asshole when I’m drunk to anyone that’s around. Not that I’m not an asshole when I’m sober I’m just worse if drunk.

When I drink I can choose what to tell people. I use that myth of the truth serum to sow lies into the truth.
