This thread is inspired by the recent Galliano debacle. Do you think you become your true self when you're drunk? We all know how some people are happy drunks, whilst others are aggressive drunks. Which one are you, and do you think that's the real you that only comes out when you've had a few too many?

Personally, I fall into the happy drunk category, you know dancing on the table, telling complete strangers I love them, kissing everyone in sight, and then collapsing in a heap in the corner where I usually just fall asleep!

[Beso]

It is the only time I really open up to my nearest and dearest, but I can also be a right twat, so sometimes yeah and sometimes no.

[Stephanie]

i'm usually happier when i'm drunk, and i don't get angry or aggressive, which i can do easily when i'm sober, and i'm always the one that looks after other drunk people even when i am myself. for me i think it just lets down a wall that i hide behind, so yeah i become my true self.

[Marsh.]

I don't know. I've never been an "idiot/stupid drunk", I'm usually the one controlling the stupid drunks, I just get giggly and really happy.

[Ninastar]

Yeah I think it is. I tend to suppress my deepest thoughts but it all comes out when I get drunk. They why I end up crying a lot. It's the most embarrassing thing ever

Maybe it just enhances the mood you're already in

Lol, yes that's me - I get embarrassingly affectionate and maudlin to my friends and family, and over familiar with total strangers, whereas in a sober state I'm much more reserved and self conscious.

I get affectionate and then cry, its like make up your mind woman!! haha

I just laugh a lot when I'm drunk.

Some people have told me it depends what they're drinking. My youngest son is a happy drunk when he sticks to beer and lager, but if he starts on the spirits, especially whisky, he can get really argumentative, bordering on aggressive, so maybe it's just as much to do with individual chemical reactions as it is with your inner self?

This is very true

I get happy drunk on cider/lager/wine

Cry on most spirits

Fight on vodka or baileys :/

[_Seth]

^That's interesting...

When I've gotten drunk, it's been vodka basically.

[Ammi]

I'm sure someone once told me that vodka makes you aggressive and my mum used to say gin makes you depressed

[Stephanie]

i usually drink vodka and i get happy drunk, same when i drink cider or beer. doesn't really change anything.

[ILoveTRW]

Im generally a happy drunk but i do get very argumentative at times.

I'm a happy drunk, and I reckon so...although at least the way I'd like to be when sober I guess.

Is that because you don't drink, or because you just know when to stop? I wish I could say the same

[Boothy]

I'm a happy drunk. I don't usually get totally arseholed because I hate waking up with a hangover and not knowing what happened the night before. I know my limit and usually stick within it. I'd say my personality doesn't really change too much, I just feel happier.

you sound sensible

[Beastie]

I don't drink much but when I have been drunk or tipsy.. I am usually a happy drunk! I have only been aggressive once or twice because I was around people I didn't like. << It was at my friend's friends party but I didn't like his friends. Thankfully I learnt from that which happened years ago and never hang around with people I don't like!

I am better off sober or a bit tipsy to be honest. Give me good music and a good atmosphere to dance into! Then I am happy. What annoys me is when no can be bothered to dance!! BOOOOOOO!
