If someone who gets too drunk to remember what they say or too high too remember what they say, says something hurtful to others and claims not to remember, they are still fully responsible for what they said.

It doesn't matter if you don't remember. It still hurt the other person.

One of my favorite pet peeves in dealing with drinkers or druggers. They think they should be allowed an out if they state they were high and don't remember.

NOT!!!!

My ex loved to get drunk so he could be an a$$ and then refuse responsibility for it.

I personally think being inebriated just removes inhibitions,, ie, makes people do and say what they WANT to do and say. How come people who get drunk seem to get undressed and do stupid things much more often than they do go stand in front of a train? Easy,, it doesnt make you want what you dont want, just makes you not care about the consequences.

I agree. I tend to talk more than I do when I'm sober if I am drinking. I don't drink if I am mad or sad because I will let people know it laugh

True tail signs...You are always responsible for your actions.
Only you can correct them.
And other to deside if your worthy.
Live and learn from your mistakes, take ownership,repair and go on.
You have to be worthy of yourself.

When someone who's trashed says something hurtful I just assume they're hurting.

I used to believe that way but have found that if a person is habitual with it and you continue to treat it as just a statement of personal pain, they never take responsibility for it.

What is honest about a chemically impaired state of mind?
YES, I think people should be held accountable for what they say and do if they've chosen to drug themselves into a stupor...
But drugs and alcohol make people disassociate because the receptors in their poisoned brain are rampantly misfiring. What they may be saying about you is just as easily what they are reflecting of themselves, a past relationship, or a fantasy situation.

Example. A man proposed to me when he was drunk. The next morning he woke up flipping out because, though it seemed like a good idea when he was messed up, a happy romantic notion, he realized that in reality he was not prepared to get married financially, mentally, emotionally etc...

Don't take an intoxicated person's word to heart. If in doubt, ask them again when they're sober.
If a person is hurtful and abusive when they're drunk, they shouldn't be drinking at all.

There is a saying which goes 'If a drunk man or woman gives you something when he or she is drunk, take it before he or she gets sober' I think the same may apply when they've told you something in their inebriated state...........They won't remember when they are sober?
