Alcohol or other intoxicats

Is it acceptable to be under influence of alcohol or other intoxicants if it helps you work ?

I know I will be inviting lot of criticism but seriously
We all operate differently and that's an accepted fact

Why then should one Rule be applied to all ?
The answer lies in society’s treatment of the issue

How would it be if everyone had developed a control on their intoxicants ?
How would it be if we knew our limits and would not cause harm or scream or inhibit other’s work

I know many design offices and other creative sectors allowing intoxicating with marijuana or weed globally

Some designers say it loosens then up and they are able to come up with out of the box ideas

So people here's the big question ,
Should we make the intoxicants a hurdle or a boon
Should it be looked at as trouble or just a catalyst.

I would like to invite my friend’s views on this !
