I am unsure what to do about alcohol induced blackouts?!


Question:

I am unsure what to do about alcohol induced blackouts?

I've only been drinking regularly for about a year now, and within that time I have blacked out so many times that I've lost count.

Since I have somewhat cut back on my drinking because of school, I am still blacking out once or twice a month. It use to be about 4-5 times a month a few months back. It never has really frightened me, because I am always around my friends and from the information I gather from them, I am capable of all the basic tasks such as holding a conversation, driving, ordering food/drinks etc.

Still, as much fun as in the time leading to the blackout, I'd love to remember the whole night. I know that drinking less, or more slowly will help stop the blackouts from happening, but every time I try that, I never even get buzzed. The point inbetween me being sober, and blacked out is so small it makes it hard stop myself.

How can I continue drinking and getting drunk, without blacking out?!


Answers:

Apparently, being a danger to yourself an others is not a concern for you. You have drank so much that you have built up a high tolerance for alcohol. (Just because you don't feel buzzed does not mean your reflexes and cognitive powers are not impaired. Lay off the alcohol for a few weeks and your tolerance level will go down and you will become a cheap date once again.
