I used to drink to the point of ending up detoxing in hospital (I’m 3 years sober now). I’d be downing vodka but at the same time I’d be downing water too, loads of it. But every time I’d end up in hospital they’d say I was chronically dehydrated. I’d have thick brown pee. I don’t understand it. Where was all the water actually going?!

ADH (anti diuretic hormone) makes you piss less to conserve water in the body. Alcohol stops this. You have to piss more when you drink alcohol. Since alcohol stops the hormone that makes you piss less you basically just piss all the water out leading to dehydration
