That's a good, short, way to explain the difference!
I never, ever, have impaired judgement. I might make stupid decisions, but I always know they're not what I would normally do and choose to do it anyway. Usually I don't do it precisely BECAUSE I know it's not what I would normally do! And the things I do indulge in there's always the "I really want to do this! You probably shouldn't because it's not like you! Yeah, BUT it's totally something lots of people do normally so it's ok!" followed either by a decision to go through with it or not. I am quite productive and am way more on top of my game at work when I am hypo.
