Tossicated sounds right. It is a made-up word, not to be found in any of my dictionaries.

Thank you all.
tosticated ... great new word on me, i can't say it without sounding drunk

Me too. I have often been crapulent but I don't remember being tosticated.
And I thought "intoxicated" meant inebriated.

I really need to drink more!
Is it too late to make a "new years resolution"?

I bet you become desiccated when you've been tosticated.
I haven't checked the etymology but suspect that someone who was intoxicated might pronounce it as 'tosticated'.

This is from Jo's link.

I fancy thou art a little intoxicated tonight. Tosticated! Tosticated! I scorn your words, cries Deborah. I defy the best man in Bath, to say black is my eye; or that I was ever consarned in liquor, since my name was Deborah. Tosticated! No; God help me! I have drunk nothing to-day, but a little tea for breakfast, and half a pint of ale at my dinner.

Whaaaaaaa?

Not quite yet, Danny, but I've made a start.
