How much liquor is supposed to get me a buzz or drunk?

I'm 18, 5 feet tall , and i weigh about 115 pounds. I had a bottle of captain morgan's (12 oz) once and it did absolutely nothing to me... it was my first time drinking. This other time, I basically chugged a bottle of vodka (Smirnoff 12 oz) and it went straight to my head but I didn't get drunk... I don't even know if I got a buzz. I got scared cause for a minute I couldn't hear anything and felt like I was going to black out - is that normal?... then I kind of instantly recovered and went swimming right after and I felt fine.

Yeah I know I'm too young, I get it. I was with my friends... and I'm not an alcoholic, I only drank twice in my life and I consider myself a responsible person (i.e. no drinking and driving). I'm just wondering why the alcohol didn't affect me the way that you would expect... that's all.

Yeah you're right... chugging isn't responsible... I don't know what I was thinking that night. I guess I wasn't. Thanks for the wake up call everyone :)

Dear Christina,

I am actually not apposed to people of a mature status drinking alcohol. BUT... drinking is very serious and you need to be careful. Drinking fast (chugging) any type of alcohol is dangerous and IS NOT responsible.

I went to college so that I can produce alcohol but I never wish to think, let alone know that any person especially a young one is abusing the products that I make.

Please check yourself and slow the drinking.

Take care.


P.S. YES. those symptoms you have stated are extremly serious. Please do not drink in such a reckless manner.
