inebriations
States of intoxication
Inebriations are instances of drunkenness or intoxication.
The word is formal and slightly literary, more likely to appear in written accounts than casual speech: His weekend inebriations were becoming a concern.
It can also describe intoxication by things other than alcohol—emotion, power, or success: the inebriations of victory.
