>>1771121Yes, I´ve been institutionalized 2 times and both times after alcohol.
That being said, there were many other factors involved. MDMA, LSD, 10 years habit of cannabis, amphetamine, benzos, drug abuse.
But both my "episodes" were right after heavy drinking binge.
I´m totally functional right now though, from society´s point of view, and I have a job and my shit together.
I actually did try to drink after being 9 months sober, just to see how it affects me, and I must say that it launched some sort of mental episode once again for me, but I could keep the delusions contained within my "rational mind" so to speak and could just ignore them.
Still pretty much convinced me that I should not drink, at all. I was not always like this though and when I was younger I could drink with no problem.
