Feeling More Like Myself When Tipsy/High

Does anyone else feel like they’re more themselves when they’re tipsy/high? I’ve had the thought multiple times like “oh, this is how it feels to be normal” when I’ve had a few drinks. Like, I make decisions without overthinking, I feel like I can express my emotions without consequence, and I just all around have less anxiety about stupid things. Obviously it’s normal to feel less anxious when you’re on drugs, but I seriously feel like this is how most people feel (emotionally) all the time. My slurred speech and staggered walk are clearly just me being drunk, but the lack of anxiety and depression feels like it should just be normal.

YES! I might be a little off when tipsy, but my brain relaxes and I feel like I can live in the moment, say what I'm thinking, and enjoy myself. Sober, I'm just a ball of anxiety with a sense of impending doom and overwhelming self doubt.
