sotted

Beyond merely tipsy

Sotted means stupefied or besotted, especially from drinking.

The word is old-fashioned and literary, describing someone dulled by alcohol or infatuation: He sat sotted in the corner of the tavern.

A sotted person has lost clarity of mind, whether from drink or excessive devotion to something.
