just a bit of info....with some people even just the slightest amount of alcohol can bring on many symptoms that may look like a mental disorder which is why in the USA Alcohol consumption no matter how small or large is addressed/ruled in/ruled out as the problem...its such a common problem (alcohol causing mental disorder like symptoms) that with the new diagnostic criteria there is now a diagnostic criteria with in many mental disorder problems stating Alcohol and drug use must be ruled out before treatment providers can place a diagnosis on someone...in the USA its no longer whether a person is an alcoholic or not, its just part of the diagnostic process for figuring out what the problems are called and what is causing that problem.

the only way to know whether the amount of alcohol you consume is what is causing the problems is to contact your own treatment providers..

we cant tell you definitively what this disorder (taking any or all of what you posted into consideration) is. all we can do is tell you what we can find on the internet if we googled the problems you posted about...which of course there are millions upon millions of things this can be...

we can also tell you whether we have had the same things happen to us...some of what you posted has happened to me and my own treatment providers called it by many different things...including physical health problems, mental problems, alcohol problems, drug interaction problems, medicinal problems, and even normal problems like sleep deprivation, poor diet, and others....

my suggestion if you really want to know what this is with in you, contact your treatment providers. they will be able to help you figure this out.
