Question: Would it be wise to take the things a drunk says seriously!?
I know the things i say when im drunk actually should be taken seriously!. Unless its just nonsense!. But when i say things that make sense about how i feel they should in fact be taken seriously!. So i know people should take the things i say seriously when im drunk!.

But thats just for me!. So what about for everyone else!? Do you take the things drunk say seriously and are we supposed to!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

" A drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts"
Peoples minds are constantly changing and their thoughts on certain issues change as well!. Whatever they say at that moment is how they feel at that moment and should be taken into consideration!. Of course, i recommend talking to that person the next day or two when they are sober just to clarify things!. But what they say drunk or not may not change!. It really just depends on the person!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm not sure about everyone but for me, yes!. Right now I've gone through a bottle of wine and I feel much more relaxed, less tense!. Its like when you speak your words go through a filter before they come out of your mouth!. When you've drunk a little (not shitfaced drunk) the filters break down and what you really feel/mean seems to come out more!.

So yes, I'd take it seriously because I'd probably assume as a reflex that everyone is like me when they're drunk!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't take what a drunk says seriously, but if that drunk was sober and said the same thing i might, a lot of people use the liquid courage to say things that they wouldn't normally say if they were sober, but how does a person really know for sure if that person feels that way or if the liquor is actually talking!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Most people drink to boost there confidence,some drink to fight their fright!.I believe the mouth utters what the mind conceives!.Yes take a drunk serious,a drunk is not completely out of his senses,he may staggers,this is because his joints are weaken due to the effect of the intoxication,he may miss a step due to miscalculations!.he would probably kill you if he treatens to!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, I do take a drunk seriously!. When people drink they let their guard down and say what they truley feel in their hearts!. I believe if they say something when they are drunk, it is true!. When they are not drunk, they don't have the nerve to say things, but when you get drunk you get loose lipped & sooo brave!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Probably yes!. Unless it it complete utter nonsense!. I think that what you say when you are drunk is what you are really thinking you just dont have the courage to say it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Seriously!? No!. Take it with a grain of salt, so to speak!. Some drunks become truthful in a way they never could while sober!. Some drunks make up stuff even better than when they were sober!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
