I only feel normal when I'm hungover??

I tried to explain this to my pdoc but it doesn't seem to go anywhere:
Of all the meds I've ever been on, I have to say the closest to "normal" I feel is after a night of drinking.
-I feel compassion; I am not emotionally clamped down
-My ADD symptoms are gone
-My meanness is gone
-I don't wrestle with forming thoughts or getting the thoughts to my mouth
-my voice and face muscles aren't tight. It is one of the only times I can sing without my voice getting caught in my throat.
-paranoia is gone
-I don't feel like other people "own" me
-My sex drive comes back full force
By dinner time something snaps and it quickly slips away and my symptoms return.
Funny thing is, I don't feel this way necessarily when I'm drinking, but I do the day after.
Does anyone else experience this and/or know why/how to reproduce it less destructively?
Benzos seem like the obvious answer, but they don't give me the same effect.
