Can alcohol cause irrational thoughts?

Question

I.E-When you cant remember parts of a night out drinking the next day you think of irrational thoughts of things you might have got up to.

Answer 1

hey, cant really anwser your next question but know what you mean!!  I get it!!  Think its beacuse after a night out you cant renember you worry what you might have done, so start thinking of all these things you "think" you did but really your just exaggerating!  Its becasue youre cringing from the night lol!

And sometimes i think when you get in and fall asleep you dream about the night out so dont know whats real or not the next day lol!

This is what i think anyway when it happens 2 me!

Answer 2

If you're having black outs you have way bigger problems than a few irrational thoughts.  Get thee to a AA meeting posthaste.

EDIT

I'll blame that thumbs down you just gave me on being another one of your irrational thoughts.

Answer 3

LOL BlueSea on the "edit"

Answer 4

Yes just don't drink so much in future. There's no need to go to AA unless alcohol is taking over your day-to-day life and behaviour.

Answer 5

you bet it does, wakin up in the morning where you don't know how you got there.

Answer 6

they are only irrational to sober people. When I'm drunk, all my thoughts are rational. Not my problem that other people dissagree!

Answer 7

WHAT!!! Alcohol causing problems...NEVER!!!

Its irrational people I tell thee!! Alcohol solves problems.

Answer 8

Yup, that's a sign of alcoholism.  The next step is probably tremors and hallucination, so I advise hopping on the wagon ASAP.

Answer 9

When I was single, me and mates would drink first in pubs then go to discos, (they weren't called clubs 20yrs ago)were we'de drink more, but we also danced a lot so it wasn't constant drinking. Never ever during those years did any of us get so drunk that we couldnt remember the previous evening! So, if you find yourself, the morning after, with only a hazy recollection of the previous evening, including "irrational thoughts" then you are drinking way, WAY too much! Cut back the booze,or your liver is going to stop working and you are going to die!

Answer 10

Those are very serious symptoms. The alcohol has affected your brain. You need to get help. Ask a Dr. to put you on antabuse and start attending AA meeting.
