mixing medications

Could mixing several medications and alcohol change your personality (until meds and alcohol wear off) and therefore have you transferring hurt feelings and anger toward another person that has never hurt you?  I take welbutrin and sometimes Zanax.  On this particular day, I went to the doctor for a pinched nerve.  I was given Vicodin (500mg) and flexeril (sp?)(10mg). I stupidly took both, then drink a bottle of wine, and proceeded to drink a 1/2 pitcher of margaritas.  I don't remember most of the day, (I think I blacked out and at some point I passed out), but I did and said some awful things to someone I dearly love who has never done or said anything to hurt me.  I have almost destroyed our relationship and I can't take back what I said.  I want to believe that mixing all of those things made me lash out at this person just because they happened to be there; that I transferred my hurt and anger from a pervious relationship to the one person that means the most to me. When I was told all the awful things that I said to this person, I just can't believe that I was sane at the time.  I want to believe that I became mentally confused about who I was talking to and said things that were not meant for this person. Am I right in thinking that the combination of drugs and alcohol are the reason I became this mean and hateful person?  That I said things I never would have said? That I said these things to this special person just because they were there?
