I couldn't handle myself. We were drinking at their dorm room with the intention of going to the pub after (pre drinking). But one of them decided they didnt want to go to the pub, so the rest of them agreed. I was pissed. I drank. A lot. This was my first time drinking with them. Everyone wanted to see how I acted drunk, so that was a motivating factor in my getting drunk.

While I was tipsy I didnt want to stay in the dorm room. I was getting agitated. I wanted to walk around outside and one of my buddies decided to come with me. About 15 - 20 mins later I was trashed (Im not a very experienced drinker and had from what i can recall 3 beers and 6 - 7 shots) Now what happens after is kinda confusing, but I remember yelling at people, talking to people and fighting with one of the people living at the dorm.

Anyways fast forward maybe 2 - 3 hours, we go back to the dorm, I get my sleeping bag out and lie down to sleep on the floor of the dorm. One of them starts kicking me, and I flip out. They yell back call me an idiot and an embarrassment. I go back to lie down, and i hear one of them saying "That guys got issues, emotional issues, he f**king snapped" ETC... (He talked a lot of ******, and also said he didnt think i was drunk)

So ****** I dont think im gonna talk to those guys any more. ****** alright Im an embarrassing drunk, who isn't? Talk ****** about me, behind a closed door, I heard it, why the f*ck wont he say it to my face in the morning. F*ck em. Sorry just had to get this off of my chest. Needed to vent a little. Whats your guys take on this? BTW the one that was talking ****** about me was was also what I considered a very good friend.

I can't understand people not remembering or losing control of their bodies after heavy drinking. I have been REALLY drunk in numerous occasions but I was still alert (I would refuse drinks because I couldn't walk straight or walk at all).

You might have a bit of an issue there. Why worry about it? If drinking causes such huge problems, don't do it. It's not that big a deal either way, and if some losers look down their noses because you CHOOSE not to drink, fsck them. Those are the ultimate loser "friends" , the ones who can't take you as you are, and can only socialize with you when polluted.

Maybe you are an embarassment? You said you don't remember, but generally people who get piss drunk, then walk around yelling at people and picking fights at random are gigantic morons. I'd probably classify you in that category if I were there and saw what you were acting like, I'd say they have every right to be pissed at you.

So basically you got shitfaced, acted like a complete and total tool, and decided you would be mad at other people?

That's a fascinating chain of logic you've got going there. Seeing as you don't even remember what happened, did it ever occur to you that maybe you were acting like a total dick?

That said... getting totally smashed and being an embarrassment to everyone around you generally goes hand in hand. Moderation in all things, my child.

All you can do is apologize for your actions and carry on with your life.

Ho yes, stay away from heavy drinking.

QFT ... I'm a very mellow person & a happy-drunk 99% of the time I elect to get intoxicated, however the few times I've acted like a douche-bag because I drank too much, all I did was apologize the next day, not blame the folks I was hanging out with.

If you can't see the logic in this & realize that YOU are the one responsible for your behavior, then I think perhaps you need to stop drinking now before you get yourself in serious trouble!

Hey, live and learn. It's all part of growing up. Drinking can be fun, but when you drink too much it's not fun. Now that you found your limit, just take it easy. Drink enough to maintain your buzz and don't overdo it.

Here's one tip. It takes about 15 min for a drink to hit your brain. If you're doing shots nonstop and don't feel drunk, stop and wait a few minutes because you will feel it.

Some people just shouldn't drink. All that after a few beers and some shots? My first night of drinking I was up to 14 (?) beers, 2 screw drivers, a couple shots of Yukon and Amaretto (sp?) and a good bit of the unmentionable and I was still in perfect control. Perhaps you should find out your tolerance and drink accordingly when you're around people who aren't good friends.

Um..

I should have been more clear. I meant losing control as in violence.

You are still you even when you're drunk, being drunk isn't an excuse for an compelete asshole. Being drunk only takes your shame or second thoughts away. In other words, you are probably an asshole even when you're sober, just dont act as bad. You are 100% asshat for blaming other people for your drunken mistakes.
