just throwing this idea out there, no clue if it fits what is going on with you.
Some of us self medicate mental illness with booze/drugs. Sometimes we medicate a mania with booze, a depressant. Take out the booze and the mania rears up. HUGE self inflated ego is a characteristic of a manic episode.

o ok .well thing is i would get these feelings usually after a night of drinking and in between cigarettes .i used to smoke its been 4 months since i had a stoag ..i only get these feelings if i get a stimulant in my body .if i go a while without .im calm and im fine ..
I stay away from stimulants for exactly that reason. Reg anti depressant drugs send me into a manic phase, and lesser stimulants, caffeine etc do tricky things to me. So I get where you're coming from.
