my first drunk experience was at 14. found some alcohol in the fridge/on the counter (don’t remember which), the places my dad usually leaves his alc. poured myself some when he was in the other room and drank it in front of my friend on facetime.

didn’t quite vomit but nearly did. he told me i was entertaining but also really weird (kept talking about communism and communist china?)

i also remember saying “i love you” to him but he fortunately hung up right before i said that.

I think 21. Had zero idea what the fuck I was doing. Pretty dangerous, in retrospect.

I was eight years old at the drive. My older cousin had taken me. He gave me a Sonic cup that had Dr pepper and peach schnapps. I got drunk as shit. My mom found out and was absolutely pissed at him. I'll tell you what he did when there's a "How old were you when you did drugs for the first time?"

14 or 15 - I only got vomiting drunk once and it was the first time. I generally don't drink and I never drink to excess.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Never been vomiting drunk, got pretty close on my first time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I can't recommend it. It's such a fucking waste.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I wouldn’t like to waste my alc like that. would I even still be that drunk if I vomited?

(I get drunk very rarely)

Honestly? I was around 26. I "discovered" alcohol alone, not in a social environment. I've always been a loner so social drinking wasn't a thing for me because I was never social.

Anyway, I was in grad school and had some temporary housing where there was a lot of food and crap people left over in the fridge and pantry. There were two things left over in the fridge that were opened that sparked my curiosity. No idea how old they were. But one was amaretto and I think the other was some wine. Got curious and tried a bit and enjoyed the effects. I had technically had alcohol many occasions prior, but not enough to get remotely near drunk or anything.

Spend the remainder of grad school occasionally binge drinking alone on the weekends to the point of vomiting. Carried on that habit for a little bit after but I hardly ever do that now.

I had actually never really drank socially until very recently. As someone with severe social anxiety, I was surprised at how helpful I found it in social situations. I only had a couple of drinks in these particular scenarios instead of getting piss drunk tho. And again, I am not social anyway so this doesn't happen on the regular. But goddamn. I didn't understand self medicating for anxiety until that.

For sure, I'm usually uncomfortably quiet in groups, but every drink makes me a little louder!

  1. My parents didn’t hide the liquor.

i, 14. dad would keep it in the fridge or counter so i drank it once on call with a friend and nearly vomited.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Same, I was in eighth grade.

As per the local law, 21, though it was just me sampling drinks for my birthday. I ended up being one of the few who hated the feeling.
