An alcohol blackout is an unforeseen event which is caused by the admission of alcohol in which long term memory gets impaired.
Blackouts are thought to be similar to what is know as amnesia don't get this confused with passing out because it is entirely different.
It is widely believed that alcohol blackouts from drinking are a good predictor of alcoholism. The founder of AA Bill Wilson also believed this to be true.
Quite often blackouts are thought to correlate with drinking large amounts of alcohol. Research has found that blackouts often occur when the blood alcohol concentration has been increased rapidly.
I know college students are fond of playing games to see who can down the most liquor. Sometimes they even hold a funnel to the participants mouth and pour liquor into .
This is very dangerous do not attempt this many people have died from alcohol overdose doing this.
I know for sure that if you drink and take valium this will increase the odds of having an alcohol black out.
I know I have had more alcohol blackouts from drinking than I can count. I have lost my car been thrown in jail and did not remember a thing.
If you get to this point You might want to look into getting some help at an alcohol treatment center.
How about this scenario what if you actually killed someone in a alcohol blackout. Then you were arrested for murder and could not remember ever driving the car.
There are a lot of people doing life in prison that can not remember what they did to get there you can avoid letting this happen to you stop drinking today!!
If you are having a lot of alcoholism blackouts maybe you need some help to stop drinking. I would recommended going to AA meetings.
Here is a no brainier if you do not drink alcohol you will not have to worry about alcoholic blackouts.
