i'm not much of a drinker, but once in awhile i drink when i'm in social situations or when i get stressed out. a few nights ago i went to the bar with a few friends and ended up drinking way to much. not to the point of blacking out or anything but i was feeling really good. the night ended well and was a lot of fun. the next morning, putting the crappy feeling of a hangover aside, i felt like complete shit. i woke up and i felt like i was an epic failure, the mood was debilitating... i carried on with most normal routines but throughout the day i felt guilt ridden and like i was a waste of human flesh and organs. I couldnt look anyone in the eye and it felt like i was borderline manic depressive. it seemed like small stressors in life turned into a giant ordeal i couldnt stop beating myself up about. like i got a 'c' on a test the week before and when i thought about it i felt like i must be mentally retarded and would never succeed in life. just small things like that i didnt know really affected me that much, but apparently the do. i'm a pretty laid back person, and i have standards, but not that high. i know alcohol is a depressant but that was ridiculous. that has happened every time after i drink for the past year or so. like i said, i dont drink that much because of this reason.

anyone ever feel like this after a night of drinking? any ideas?
