Did I drink too much?!


Question:

Did I drink too much?

I don't usually have alcohol, but I drank a little bit tonight because of a special occasion. I had about 2-3 oz of arbor mist (6% alcohol by volume) and didn't drink more than that in order to avoid ill effects. However, now I'm shakey and feel like I do when I drink too much black coffee on an empty stomach. I feel a bit tired, though not disoriented (I can still play the guitar and type this question). But I'm scared! Is there something wrong with me? Does this normally happen? I did have some coffee today, but it was a few hours ago.

I had the alcohol about 45 minutes ago as of now. How long will the effect take to wear off?

Sounds like a blood sugar problem, what did you eat today? Have half a sandwich, tuna or peanut butter (no jelly) on whole grain bread, and a small glass of milk. If the idea of eating right now totally turns you off, eat it anyway. Half an hour after eating I bet you'll feel fine. This is a chronic problem for everyone in my family.

Two scrambled eggs with whole wheat toast and a glass of milk would work too.

If you feel this way after drinking that usually means that you did drink too much. All you need to do is eat something. That usually helps! And if it comes with bread, that's even better. It will sober you up. Good luck!

You didnt even have the equivalent of a shot of booze - so calm down. I'm with the other folks who say you should eat something.

Good luck.

you will be ok don't worry, 6% is a joke a regular shot contains 80% and that's the proof the actual alcohol is 40% so you only had like 4.5% alcohol lol with in all your drinks and besides the amount of alcohol a person may drink is 1oz of 80%proof per 40 to 50lbs and your around 100lbs so forget about it get some Doritos and bean dip you will be great
