If drunkeness leads to leitzonus, l”h, nivul peh, hezik (throwing up in someone else’s house?), missing mincha or ma’ariv, etc. then that is NOT the intention of chaza”l.
If drinking yayin, getting high, leads to a hiskarvus to Hashem, and you dig deep inside you (nichnas yayin yoitzeh soid) and bring out your inner-true feelings of love to Hashem, torah, and Klal Yisroel, THEN you have fulfilled your chiyuv.
