This is a serious question. So while I was at my friends house, I had a lot of shots. For instance, at around 8:30 pm I had about 4-5 shots, I had vodka, tequila and I think rum. And after that, I honestly didnt feel all that different. I felt the slightest difference, but nothing big. So then, like, 6 hours later, I had another 5 shots of whatever the hell I saw. Like, it was rum, tequila, vodka, flavored chocolate wine, etc. and now, I feel, different.


I'm obviously not drunk, cause I can write this pretty good, but I feel weird. I really don't know if I'm "faking" this (subconsciously faking it) or if I really feel like I'm a little drunk or buzzed. Like, I'm pretty aware, but I just feel, I don't know really.


I haven't gotten drunk since I was like, 6-9 years old, which was on accident. So I wouldn't really know, I also don't know how I have such a tolerance to alcohol. After how many shots would you get drunk? My friend had these small cups, so what I wanna know is how much is a shot, like, is it only like a heft sized gulp of alcohol? Or is it small or bigger. Cause the cups he had were enough to just gulp really fast, but not so much to where you have to take 2-3 drinks from. It was one, really nice drink. I didn't have to go back to finish. The cups were small too, but idk alcohol much.

Also, I've always been a wine drinker, and I've always been able to have a nice glass of wine without worrying.

Well, from my experiences, most of the time when you're drunk, you don't even notice. You just think you're buzzed, and sometimes you don't notice any difference in the way you feel.

Maybe this is what you're experiencing. Maybe you're buzzed or drunk, but you're just not aware of it. This has happened to me many times.

When your drunk, you don't really feel much different, well I don't...
I can type fine, like texting etc, and when I have a lot to drink my face feels a bit numb, but that's it really. Other than that you just feel like doing random stuff and saying stuff you might not usually say.
Once you've had a bit to drink you may also find it hard to walk straight and get sleepy etc.

Last night for example, I had like 2 pints of cider, 2 pints of Carlsberg, like 5 shots, a vodka and orange, and a Jager Bomb.
But that was in the space of time between 11pm and 3am (which is when I walked home) but I could walk fine and didn't feel too bad.

ps. Shots are meant to be in a small glass, just a mouthful, that your meant to down all at once. Hence the name. They are normally vodka and different flavors like bubblegum or blackjack.

And if you drink stop and drink some more again a few hours later, especially 6 hours later you won't really get drunk.
