Hi,
My boyfriend went to the pub with friends drinking outdoors.
I picked him up at 10, even though he wanted to stay out longer.

He has come home and he is speaking about prophets, an imaginary football team, and basically riddles.

This doesnt seem his normal drunk. We've had an argument and ive asked if he's been on anything,
He says "yes" then "no" then "yes" then "no",

When he says "yes" i ask "what?" And he says "not sure what it was, could be anything"
Then he says "no" and starts laughing that he never said that and that i'm a psychopath and i was the one who said it.

I'm on the sofa feeling tearful and he's asleep in bed.
He's not one to take drugs but this drunkness seems weird.

A friend spiking his drink as a joke without his knowledge would explain him saying “yes” and “no” and “could be anything”.
I’d wait for him to sober up and then ask him about it.

Of course it could just be alcohol if he has drank a lot(or more than his tolerance). Very drunk people can talk absolute crap, or do ridiculous things. ( Been there myself) apparently lol. Leave things until tommorrow, and just chat with him normally without being on the attack. Don't go in or guns blazing or he might just get defensive and lie. .... Chances are hes had a few to many like we all do... Dont let it spoil your break Smile

Im really rubbish with drugs so weed was just the most common one i knew of but yes the way he's speaking probably matches others more

Are you able to keep safe babe?

StardewMelons · 11/10/2020 01:07

@dontknowesnch On your third post you said he kept repeating sorry?

Dontknowesnch · 11/10/2020 01:09

@StardewMelons ah no, that was my typing mistake! Confused he kept repeating something about only one of us in this relationship taking drugs,
I made a type with the third post sorry!

Ahh sorry I didnt realise. Well without knowing anything really about you and him, I would say If you feep safe to, get some sleep and have a chat tommorrow. I have seen people on ocassions acting out on drugs, personally I think it sounds more like his pissed out of his head talking shit. My Ex partner was an alcoholic so I have seen everything and anything with drunken behaviour. Anyway hope all goes well for you.

If he fell asleep pretty quickly that makes it more likely he was just drunk than having taken a stimulant (e.g. coke or E) and even people who've taken a hallucinogen like mushrooms or acid would not usually nod off soon after coming home. Could be weed but if there's no smell then could be just drunk.

InfiniteSheldon · 11/10/2020 07:48

Doesn't sound like mushrooms to me they make you laugh more but it doesn't matter what drugs he's taken or been given he left you alone in a romantic cabin when you'd gone away for a week? That's not really on.

Straven123 · 11/10/2020 07:52

STick this under his nose when he sobers up.
Taking random drugs is v risky.

Weed tends to make you very giggly, very hungry, then very tired. It also stinks to high heaven - you'd know if he'd been smoking anything.
God knows if he's had anything other than alcohol - always a possibility, but not unusual for the very drunk to chat a lot of shit, especially if they've been around someone else filling them with nonsense.

Savemyusername01 · 11/10/2020 09:46

Why did you go out with mates if he was on a break with you?

MoistMolly · 11/10/2020 09:48

The actions of a drunk person can be very similar to those displayed by somebody having a stroke.

buildingbridge · 11/10/2020 10:00

If it's weed, you'll be able to smell it on him. That scent is strong!

36pregnant · 11/10/2020 12:51

What’s happened OP?

NerrSnerr · 11/10/2020 13:03

Why did he go to the pub with a friend when he was away with you? Did you manage to discuss it with him this morning?

RattleOfBars · 11/10/2020 16:08

If it’s weed you’d be able to smell it (smoky pungent smell) and he’s probably have bloodshot eyes and want to eat sugary stuff all night?

He might have just had too much alcohol or mixed drinks, people can get bizarre when they’re drunk and say odd things.

Or it might be a mental health problem, has he ever had psychosis or psychotic depression or mania?

Elieza · 11/10/2020 16:37

None of this sounds good.

You’re on a holiday weekend in a cabin and he’s out with the lads? WTF? Unless of course there’s a few couples with you and all the girls hung out and all the guys hung out separately which is fair enough.

I wouldn’t be talking any more to him until he recovers from whatever he took.

It’s either drugs he knows he took or he’s been spiked. Either way I wouldn’t be happy with the situation. Honestly, I hate drugs and drunk people sooo much I’d probably dump him once we were home. I would never want that to happen again.

Do you usually see him after he’s been out with the lads? If he stays with them overnight it could be he’s like this every time. You just never get to see it. If he usually comes home to you after and is just a bit drunk then this blip could be a one off, or he was spiked. I wouldn’t want anyone I love to be hanging with so called friends who would do such a thing as to spike their pals drink. Drugs can kill.
