Super interesting! When I was 20, I visited a detox facility and there was a guy there who I was told had "wet-brain". I just now learned, after 12 years, what this actually means.
He was reduced to the level of a hallucinating child, talking about how he was about to be forced into the army, then woke up with paramedics standing over him on the sidewalk.
