I need to let this out...

I can't say any of this at KHV since it's not really approciate. And well I need to get it off my chest and this is the best place since everyone is mature. Well here is the story.

Well i've come back from a party, it would of been like any normal party at the Rochford Hundred Rugby Club. They have a bar that serves anyone, so like most of the parties there alot of people have alot to drink, but really never has anything really bad happened, until tonight. Me and my friends got there at 8, we had a few beers and stuff, I had 2 strongbows and people had similar. Then at 9:30 we decided to go and do some shots, so we had 1 round, then it came to 10, and the party ended at 12, but the bar closed at 11, so we decided to do shots every 10-15 minutes until the bar closed and we did. But one friend Deanna wanted to do 10 shots which was her goal last week but didn't do it. So when we had 1 shot she had 3, which in one go is alot.

She is generally a small girl at around 5'3-5'4. And by 11 when the bar closed she had 11 shots and a vodka and coke within the space of 3 hours. She seemed like a normal drunk, looking a bit loopy and well acting drunk. But a friend decided to take her to the toilets, and well she and the friends where there a long time, and as a few came out to tell us guys on updates, they said she was in the floor. We weren't surprised she couldn't walk with the moment she drunk. But then the bouncers came in and then dragged her out. And that is when it hit us that things were serious. She was going paraletic. She couldn't walk or really do anything, they took her outside so we all followed and she then started throwing up constantly so we got her lots of tissues and stuff.

I myself has quite alot to drink, probably in amount of units the same as her, but I can handle more since i'm a guy and much taller with more body weight. Then this drunken guy at the party came around, and kept saying about trying to get to her to wake up (she was in the unconscience state) and then he kicked her. Well at that point a few of us wanted to punch the guy and an argument brawled. But I couldn't do anything since I was near throwing up with the amount I drank. But then guy left and the sober friends rang her parents to wake her up. I had water and felt better, I could walk and do things better. Her boyfriend who is also called Craig was in denial. All because he bought her 3 shots. So he felt to blame for her being this way.

Then her parents arrived, we were all a bit emotional, and we tried to help to her the car when her mum went berserk and blamed us all for what happened to her, saying that we should of been looking out for her and what sort of friends we were. I can understand her anger, she is stressed and worried for her daugther and needed a scapegoat which was us. But this took Craig over the edge and he ran off. So one friend followed him. While I'll helped calm down another who was upset after Deanna's mum shouted at us. But after we followed the other 2 after Craig ran off. We were worried for him since he had quite a bit to drink also was was emotionally unstable. So we all sat on the field trying to recover from the shock when we found out she has been taken to hospital.

Craig now feels sucidial and blames himself, and the rest of us are really upset and worried. We all know she will be ok but it's the shock of it all. Her parents said that we won't see her for a long time implying we can't see her, even though we have the holiday in about a month. Well it's just stressful for us all.

It's given me a wider outlook on drinking now. I don't get hangovers so I don't feel side effects of drinking and I probably won't get one tommorow morning. So I didn't worry about how much I drank but after seeing Deanna that way, I don't want to drink as much as I have. Tonight if I has 1-2 more drinks I could of been in that state, it's scary, one minutes she was fine the other she looked half dead. Really it's given us all a wider outlook, we have all heard about it, but never have we seen it happen to a friend, and it's scary. And well we are all rather emotional.

Sorry but I felt I had to let off some steam from it all.

o.o that was very well thought out for the amount of alcohol that was in your system...guess even scary shit like that can make you think seriously no matter what condition you are in.

I think you all handled it the best way you could. Your friend seemed dead set on drinking that much, and I guess its just a good thing she didn't drink more, or who knows what ould have happened. I know what you mean about the scary side of drinking though. My younger brother ended up in the hospital as well from alcohol poisoning, same as a kid in his grade who died from it. Since then he has had occasional blackouts which were recently diagnosed as seizures.

Just stay strong, things'll work out how they are supposed to, and don't let her near alcohol for awhile, if she ever intends to drink again ^^;;

I think I had sobered up a little bit since the party and when i wrote that, we didn't leave the area until well over an hour after the party ended. I had lots of water so I wasn't as bad as i felt earlier.

Like I said he is fine now, just goa bad hangover, so all will be ok. Her parents now know we aren't to blame. But the boyfriend Craige, i'm not sure how is his fairing, but i assume he is better than me was last night.

Though I needed just speak it out. It's also a warning to everyone who hasn't drunk yet. Just becareful when drinking, find your limit and stick to it. I found my last night and I will never go beyond it.

After seeing my dad with a hangover, I don't think I EVER will drink.

I hope your friend gets better. Have you been to see her yet?
