It works the other way. (OTB) Chess helps in drinking. When I lose I often get a beer. When I win I will celebrate it - with beer. When I play draw we will analyze - with beer!

When done, I first buy some beer before starting to observe other games.

You were the Chosen One! You were supposed to destroy the Trolls, not join them. You were supposed to bring balance to chess.com, not leave it in darkness.

I'm so sorry GokuUI12345. I have to do it, you forced my hand.

I wouldn't dare play an OTB rated tournament sober.  I take adderall or vyvanse before the tournament (I'm ADD, it's prescription) and I usually get a little bit of "herbal medicine" in my car in between rounds. (it's legal in my state) The former helps my focus tremendously, and dampens my emotions.  The latter helps with patience and creativity.  Too much herbal medicine has its consequences though, especially when you realize you have spent 40 of your 120 minutes, still in the opening looking for "novelties." 
This is all a quote from my good friend, he was too afraid to confess it on his account.  (coward)

As a scientist, two things are obvious

1) alcoholic drinks decrease brain performance

2) alcohol drinks may tend to relax a person and help him be more aggressive.

Consequently, it seems to me that having a drink may help those who get so tense they don't see the board as well or avoid taking risks when perfectly sober.

That evaluation is simply a hypothesis - the beginning of the scientific method not a conclusion based on it.

I’ve ended a few losing streaks with a glass or two of whiskey. That third glass always renews the streak, however.

I remember playing an opponent about 400 points higher than me. In a very tense game. Was G/90 if I recall.

At one point during my move, I am analyzing the position, my opponent gets up and leaves the room. I figured he just went to the rest room or something.

So I make my move and hit my clock.

And the guy doesn't come back for a while.

After about 25 minutes he finally returns, with a Starbucks coffee!!

I was insulted he would take me so casually!!
