Why do I black out all the time? Help me stop!!!?!


Question: So, I have a problem with blacking out everytime I drink. I will have UV Lemonade with Diet Sierra Mist. I fill the glass with 1-2 shots worth and fill the rest with the pop. I feel like I never get the "buzzed" or "drunk" feeling, I go from being sober to blacked out.

I only have 3 of these drinks....any tips on me to knock it off??? I like to be drunk, but not blacked out!

Blacking out from drinking (alcohol intoxication delirium) is when the brain is so inhibited it cannot commit events to memory. The first drink is usually stimulating (the "buzz") but all subsequent drinks are inhibiting & will contribute to the blackout effect. I'd say try drinking something else - call it a personal experiment. Try a different cocktail, then a different type of liquor, then reduce the amount & find your "happy" place. At least you'll know exactly what you can tolerate & recall events. Happens to me too - I decided blacking out was my body's way of telling me I was seriously poisoned, so I stopped drinking altogether... Damage control sucks. Good luck!

are you sure somebodys not spiking your drink with that date rape drug? thats not normal.. when this happens are you around the same people?

check your blood it could be that your anaemic

Go see a doctor - it could be a serious condition. And in the meantime, STOP DRINKING. Tell the doctor if you're taking any other medication, legal or not.

you probably got ur drink spiked

How much do you weigh? I just posted a similar question relating to how alcohol affects someone and how differing it is. I am pretty small and get drunk off only like 2 shots and 2 normal (beer type) drinks. If you are small or have a low BMI you might be experiencing the same as me.

tiamaria has it right....cut back on what on you put in your drink....switch it...whatever works best for you...you'll feel better in the long run....

i black out all the time. theres nothing wrong with it. what you need to do is increase your tolerence. i recomend a daily i.v. drip.

Get checked for diabetes.The liver converts alcohol into sugar because the stomach isn't geared up to digest it.Nobody wants to go into a diabetic coma.

Instead of the diet Sierra Mist use Red Bull. You will get a much better buzz and not black out.
Good times!!!

Don't drink to much alcohol. That is making you black out.
