Hey Everyone, I’m wandering if Alcohol acts like a stimulant to anyone else? I am 24 and ever since I’ve had my first drink at 19 i realize Alcohol and me are friends somehow. I will state a few things first I’m 5’9”, 300 pounds Diagnosed with HEDS, PCOS/PMOS, Disautonomia, POTS like symptoms, Depression, Anxiety, and most Likely undiagnosed AuADHD like my little sibling who is diagnosed. I have a Ridiculous alcohol tolerance and have never truly felt what people describe as Drunk? It dampens my overthinking/ constant awareness of stimuli in my environment so it’s like I can Finally thing and there’s no other thoughts to derail it. The epitome of a Dog seeing a squirrel is the usual vibe, but that all quiets. I can move how I want without nerve pain or joint discomfort, it works better than my pain medication somehow. I can still think coherently, walk a straight line, I can drink over twenty shots and blow zeros in three hours. (Have a cop as family did it for fun) I can drink something like a Mikes hard lemonade and it is like what i assume large amounts of Caffeine does, im caffeine intolerant. Anyway I drink a miles hard lemonade and I’m wired for hours, I usually have chronic fatigue from my conditions I manage and when I drink I can stay awake for hours without feeling tired at all, the more alcohol consumed the longer I am awake for which is odd to me. I’m not sure if my body is not processing it correctly or what but I don’t get hang overs. Sure I get indigestion and upset stomach after but that’s not hard. I can look at a tomato wrong and my stomach says hmmm stomach issues suffer lol. The most I’ve drank in a night was 40 ish shots of mixed Dark and light liquors in which I felt what I assume was tipsy for under ten minutes, then proceeded to learn magic the gathering from two sober people at the party. Does anyone else experience this strange phenomenon when they drink and what is your hypothesis of what I’m experiencing? Love to hear your thoughts.
