    I was blackout many many times in my 20s. Scary not knowing what happened whilst in that state, only hearing of the aftermath or seeing the evidence after sobering up (wasn't sober too often). But I have 5 years completely clean and sober now, and I wouldn't trade it for anything! I do miss the good times and euphoria sometimes, but not nearly enough to revisit the absolute hell of alcoholism/addiction.

      Relatable to that now. Just turned 21 been drinking for a while. It doesn’t interfere with my daily responsibilities and I refuse to blackout in a social setting anymore. But the only reason I stopped is because I’d hate waking up in the morning and asking my friends what happened the night before. Whiskey can make you do terrible things.

    I'm an alcoholic, going to meetings, trying to recover. 33 days without a drink. Can't tell you how many times when I was loaded that I was totally coherent and functional, only to wake up the next day missing keys, wallets, etc. No idea what I had done. Closest people to me didn't even know until I admitted my problem and asked for help. Life long battle, hardest thing to quit. It's literally everywhere, available almost at any moment.

      "For the first time ever I saw the Scotch in their natural habitat, and it weren't pretty. I'd seen them huddling in stations before, being loud but… this time I was surrounded. Everywhere I went it felt like they were watching me; fish-white flesh puckered by the Highland breeze; tight eyes peering out for fresh meat; screechy, booze-soaked voices hollering out for a taxi to take 'em halfway up the road to the next all-night watering hole. A shatter of glass; a round of applause; a sixteen-year-old mother of three vomiting in an open sewer, bairns looking on, chewing on potato cakes. I ain’t never going back… not never."

    I used to get blackout drunk from time to time. It's a scary thing. One time I suddenly skipped from nighttime to early morning in the blink of an eye and the room went from normal to totally trashed in an instant. I know I did it but I have zero memory of it. Stuff like that is what made me realize I have a serious problem.

      I had a blackout once that I can't seem to blame on the alcohol I was drinking that night. I did e too, so that further makes things harder to understand. But just like you, I went from perfectly ok with a good buzz at night, to just opening my eyes and the sun was out... I didn't go to sleep. It felt like I just woke up without going to sleep. It felt like coming out of a 10 hour coma or something to that degree. One minute I was there, then I wasn't, then I was back again but 10 hours somehow passed... I'm starting to suspect someone put something in one of my drinks. I've blackout drinking hundreds of times, this wasn't the same thing. My first memory was my friend saying "lastnight was sooo much fun" and my response was "what night??!"

He was able to trace his path between home and the motel room by his credit card usage at various gas stations and restaurants but still no memory. That was the last time he drank.

Based on the descriptions from my friends and family, my behaviour is completely random. 50% of the time, I’m hiccupy and woozy, the other 50% I’m annoyed or “rowdy”. I grew up in a home where if my father was drinking, he was drinking to black out and he would get very aggressive. Personally, I think your blackout behaviour is based on your recent experiences, as well as childhood experiences. If a loved one passed away, broke up with partner, lost a job, or bullied during youth and haven’t dealt with those feelings, then you probably shouldn’t be touching the alcohol, speaking from experience.

    Malcolm Gladwells book The Tipping Point was really interesting and inspiring. I think Gladwell has a passion for human statistics (the best way I can describe it), like myself. Trying to quantify and qualify the behaviours of individuals and collectives over time. In particular, his analysis of the Broken Windows initiative in New York and how it contributed to a dramatic fall in crime throughout the 1990s, that was something I remember many years after reading.

Some people can be drunk and function day to day routines, and some cant even walk or talk. We are all witnesses. Everyone eventually finds there drug of choice. Time decides that factor.

      Alcohol is alcohol. It doesn't make a difference. What's different is the social settings and emotions tied to the alcohol. Some drinks are associated with partying (like shots of hard liquor) while some like wine are associated with relaxing. When you drink, your brain is making associations about how you've felt in the past and you will base your current experience off of past ones

    • @DarthGangsta
      @DarthGangsta Před 4 lety +49

      Yes and no in my opinion. The only significant between different alcohols are the various percentages. If you're drinking wine or beer, your body absorbs that alcohol more slowly over a longer period of time, which causes more relaxing and mild effects. Since liquor is a solution sometimes mostly alcohol, it can hit your system faster and harder, which yields the more potent and negative effects. The main reason for why people consider liquor to be like a different strain of alcohol is because they're consuming entire servings of alcohol in a matter of seconds that has no other ingredients to buffer how fast it enters your bloodstream.

    I started drinking at 12 because my friends and I thought we were cool. Plus our older siblings would have to drag us around with them. Their friends and them would be partying so we would too, it was less awkward and honestly a lot of fun!! But I can definitely attest to the fact that drinking at such a young age as often as were was a total recipe for disaster! It led to a life of alcoholism, drug abuse, self worth issues, health problems, etc…
    In fact I’m 38 and still struggling. Yes, I had to learn my own lessons. I wasn’t trying to listen to anyone! Neither was my addiction.
    And to all the people who just can’t help but say something mean and condescending, remember that it could be you, or your mother, or child that’s struggling. Often in silence because of the fear of rejection and the shame they feel. Don’t be so cold.

Meanwhile, I knew people that every time they drank, they blackout out. I would see it after someone had 2-3 drinks. So there is something else going on with blacking out we just don’t know medically and psychologically.

Apparently in my drunken haze I had walked into the middle of the road and was struck by a car. I was unconscious for about 5 days and had broken my leg, cracked my head open and dislocated my shoulder. Another time I ended up in a town about 50 miles away I dont know how the hell that happened. I came to in a supermarket where I was apparently shopping. It seems I kept getting on random buses. Another time I came to with some guy speaking to me, I was on the floor and he was trying to help me up, they had to get me an ambulance. Another time I came to speaking to some random guy, who was trying to rob me, I dont remember what I was saying to him but it sucks for him because I didnt have any money on me. I was loiterally standing there in the park just speaking to him, when I got my senses about me I asked him who the hell he was and he ran off.

      There's actually a scientific reason for that. Since alcohol is a depressant, your brain tries to counter it by releasing stimulants into your body. So as the alcohol is filtered out of your body, all that is left is the stimulants which jolt you awake. It's the same reason why even though you can sleep for like 10 hours after drinking heavily, you still usually feel like you didn't get any sleep because you never really enter REM sleep because of the stimulants.

    You blackout retroactively, so it is impossible to tell if someone is in a period where they won't remember it later. What I mean is, someone will drink way too much and reach the threshold of blacking out at let's say midnight. They then will not remember things from 9 pm, when they weren't as intoxicated and if they would've left at 10 pm then they'd remember the whole night.
    So a threshold of "I can't remember it so I must not have been myself at that time" doesn't really hold up. You can lose your memory from much earlier in the night when any reasonable person would've judged you as relatively sober because later you crossed a boundary where alcohol prevented you from forming longer term memories about the night.

    This is an answer to Joe's question: 'Does the "blackout" level of blood alcohol concentration differ between individuals?'
    I'm inclined to say the actual level is the same for all individuals. What Joe is describing is, the different amount of alcohol over time that it takes for *individuals* to reach that level. As we all know, body mass is one factor--bigger people require more alcohol over time to get drunk. But there is an enzyme, produced by the liver, that detoxifies alcohol--it's called: alchohol dehydrogenase. Some ethnic groups either don't have this enzyme at all, or make much less of it than other ethnic groups. Its production is governed by the amount of alcohol in the blood stream on a day-to-day basis. This explains why abstaining from alcohol for extended periods can make an individual more susceptible to drunkenness with lower amounts of alcohol consumed per sitting.

  • @TSotP

    I'm Scottish. From the age of 14 I started going to a metal club on a Friday night. Parents concent, and with a little cash. I didn't have enough money to get blind drunk, and if I could get served (I could) I could have a few pints.
    This meant that my introduction to alcohol was slower and never taboo. As a result, I can only ever think of a hand full of times I ever got blackout drunk. It also meant that I could build a tolerance for alcohol.
    Now, as an almost 40yo, I don't drink often, but can hang with the best of them if it is a night when people are drinking.
