//When did Raj start talking around women without alcohol?// I just watched Season 6 Episode 24 The Bon Voyage Reaction. At the end of that episode, Raj started to talk with Penny without alcohol, when Penny came to visit Raj in his apt. In their conversation, Penny pointed out that his alcohol was talking and suddenly Raj also realized that he was not drinking. The idea is or the treatment here for him is, like a shock treatment. He was very upset by Lucy's break up. That was cured his shyness. That was my assumption. Because, at that episode no one mentioned how he able to talk with women without alcohol.
