    Default Does tequila make you crazy?

    I mean crazier than say vodka or gin or whatever?

    That shit is dangerous for me, I swear. I swore off it for many years--like since my early 20s--but they opened a new bar here in Key West that serves only tequila.

    I'm not going to say what I did last night, but now I have to go apologize. I doubt very much they are mad, and they are going to thank me for some of it lol--but I'm doing it anyway.

    At least I didn't destroy any furniture, get in a fight, ride my motorcycle into a barricade while being chased by cops, or go to jail. Actually I never went to jail after tequila though. But I should have numerous times.

    Waaaay worse than vodka or gin for me. I've had straight vodka/gin throughout the night - no problem. With tequila, it's like someone took a shotgun to my short-term memory.

    Tequila turns me into another human being, and I am not sure I like her. Vodka is probably my safest drink. Whiskey switches the violent bitch switch, though that may just be because whiskey is my go-to bad mood drink. Gin smells funny.

    Yes... tequila is just bad news. If someone tells me that tequila is his/her favorite drink, I actively avoid said person.

    I'm very much a happy drunk & Patron is my drink but I know it makes most people violent. I was even at a wedding & a guy from the wedding party saw me drinking tequila & ordered some for himself. After a few shots & a couple beers later he looks at me & says he's going to get into with someone that night & wanted me to have his back...lol That isn't my style nor was it going to happen but I did have to grab the guy by his neck because he ended up head butting some guy.

    I only drink tequila. I must be fucking nuts. I hate all brown liquors and I hate vodka and gin. As long as I pace myself I don't get sloppy.

    I only drink Tequila...and Margaritas when I'm working on the road. I get so stupid drunk that I could never be trusted to get home in one piece. On the road a cab, a hotel room and a really good hooker are all I need after happy hour!

    Does tequila make me crazy? FUCK. YES. I always thought it had something to do with me being Mexican. Last time I got fucked up on Tequila I woke up naked in a shower with the worst cold of my life. No idea how I got home, kinda scary.

    You would have run far, far away from me when I was in my early 20s, when tequila was by far my favorite drink. It's a miracle I am still alive, and I mean that literally. The cops who were chasing me that one night could tell you that. I have no idea why they didn't arrest me, but I think it was because they thought I was dead maybe. I have this vague memory of suddenly waking up in the ambulance and thrashing around trying to get out of the stretcher and the EMT guys getting pissed at me. But I didn't remember that part until days later. The next morning I woke up in the hospital minus a whole lot of skin, my face looked like Frankenstein (no shirt & no helmet), and I had no idea how I got there.

    And then there were all the other nights. Like climbing out on this tiny 3 inch ledge 8 floors up, and spread eagling myself facing into the room outside the big bay window of my dorm room, pressing my face against the glass and yelling, etc. People would freak the fuck out. Once they almost killed me trying to drag me back in. The last time I did it, I had only drank about 8 shots. I did it alright, but then started praying to the God I have never believed in, promising I would never, ever do it again if he just let me get back in. I'm surprised I didn't wet myself. There was a lot of other stuff, too.

    I'm really surprised I didn't get into more fights, though. It made me utterly fearless. But that is not at all a good thing in a lot of situations. Like down here for instance, there are a lot of SEALs, etc.

    Oh I would definitely go to jail if I drank tequila at Pleasure Island...



    Now I am also a happy drunk, and generous too--money showers and all that. Vodka is great for that. But I much prefer being tipsy as opposed to drunk, it's better for my wallet, and the next day too.

    Tequila doesn't make me nuts, but it hits me like a ton of bricks. If you've ever seen 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit' & the part where the guy gets clobbered in the warehouse by the net of bricks ... Yeeeeeaah, that's me. One shot of that & I sit on the floor b/c it feels safer than a chair.

    I hold my whiskey well enough if I pace it. Nvr have cared for vodka. Rum mixed drinks are nice to chill out w/, brandy when sick or unwinding after work, & sliwowica when I can find it.

    What's interesting about rum is that it used to kill people, back in the days when pirates roamed the Caribbean. I mean literally kill them. I'm sure there was more to it than the alcohol, but if you read the old accounts they are full of people tying one on and croaking in the next day or two. Dehydration from the heat + dehydrating effect of alcohol? I don't know...

    What I used to really like was Mezcal--the hardcore Mexican tequila with the worm in it. Tequila really does have an extra little mildly hallucinogenic effect somehow. But mezcal is to tequila what tequila is to other drinks. That was the shit I drank the night of the Great Motorcycle Chase, half a fifth. Plus 5-6 beers and a bunch of weed. My friends tried to take my keys from me, but I was so crazy I threatened to destroy shit unless they gave them back, They said 'Fine, fuck you--go ahead and kill yourself. We tried.'

    It tastes pretty vile, really. I have tried so-called 'premium' mezcal and it's nothing at all like Patron, trust me.

    I love myself a few shots of Patron when I'm out with friends.
    I've been fortunate to not ever have so many that I've lost control, lost consciousness or been sick from it.
    I see it happen all around me though. I try to learn lessons from watching others.

    I can honestly say it doesn't affect me more than other types of alcohol.
    Although I don't like the taste and don't usually drink it straight.

    But I'm weird because for a small person I have a pretty high tolerance to most types of liquor.

    It's weird because when I was 17 I was really thin; I had to workout like crazy for years to put on the muscle I have now, and I'm still pretty lean. But I could drink like a fish back then. I used to drink most of a fifth of tequila by myself in one night.

    I can drink a little more again now--since moving down here I've been partying a little more like everyone does down here--but I would probably fucking die if I drank that much now. Well not literally death, but I'd be sick for days.

    I have a similar problem..I started drinking in the 10th grade. Back then I would drink straight whiskey because it was the only alcohol I could get without seriously going out of my way.(had a lot in my house that my parents didn't like)

    I would die if I did that now..I think it has to do with metabolism or how fast the body rids itself of toxins.
    I've also noticed that whenever I've done liver cleanses, I have had less intense hangovers too.

    When you think of all the toxins your liver has filtered over the years, it makes sense that a young teenager would have less hangover effects than an adult simply because they haven't' been exposed to these toxins for many years

    However, I could be totally wrong as I'm not a medical person by any means.

    Well clearly you are far from being ignorant as well. ;-)

    I do know we are walking chemical factories, and everyone has a different reaction to different kinds of alcohol, as well as different drugs.

    Also that the same very high tolerance to large quantities of alcohol, far from being something to brag about, is often the mark of the future alcoholic. I am weird with this. Sometimes I can drink a lot (though nowhere near as much as way back). Sometimes a couple of drinks will go right to my head.

    I've heard that this can be at least somewhat mental. I've experienced it myself. if I'm in a normal nightclub and everyone is drunk, I feel like I'm getting drunk faster.
    But the same amount of alcohol consumed with one friend will affect me a lot less..sounds weird but is definitely true. I think we influence each others emotions/state of mind more than we know.
    I also think it could be hormonal as well, but I'm not sure if that applies to men as they have less fluctuating hormones.

    I haven't noticed any difference with tequila.

    I drink 'em all - vodka, rum, scotch, bourbon, whiskey, tequila. Tequila doesn't seem to affect me any differently.

    (Not a fan of gin, don't like the taste, goes back to grade school I think).

    If you drink more than two bottles in one night you probably will not see very well.

    Trust me tequila is stronger than it looks, I'm Mexican so well is what I mean.

    Tequila doesn't do anything more for me than regular alcohol, but it gives me a hangover like no other. I can be drunk as hell of various other drinks and be ok the next day, but just a few tequila drinks and I'm dead to the world when I wake up. I have to plan my schedule for the next day around tequila the night before.

    Tiquila makes me do things that I would not normally do, such as bite down on lime slice, lick horrendous amounts of salt & fall over my own feet. . . . . . I get drunk off tiquila the same as anything else. Gin is a weird one for me, i don't seem to get drunk enough of it & yes I have drunk different brands :/ I could get more drunk from beer than what I would from Gin.

    People probably get more drunk with tequila cos its usually drunk in shots.So you gonna be necking it quick than with other drinks.I live in mexico but i dont drink tequila that much.In fact when groups of guys are buying bottles in the club its not often tequila.Its more likely to be whiskey.And people dont down it in shots.Its sipped slowly sometime with shots of lime and tomato.I think in US/europe it has a very unsophisticated image,probably cos most tequila in other countries taste like shit.The mexicans save the good stuff for themselves.
