Why do I pass out when drunk?

Question

Hey everybody.

Every time I drink, I always get drunk for about 30 minutes and then pass out. Not really pass out, Let's say if I'm chillin' at home, I will get dizzy and lay down and fall asleep.

I can never have all the fun like my sisters because im sleep. They say I drink too fast so i get sick... what do t'all think?

I usually drink clear vodkas: grey goose, ciroc, belv. and 3 olives etc

and I only have one drink.. i just drink it fast like juice.

Answer 1

You are an alcoholic and need to avoid drinking completely.

Answer 2

maybe your body can't handle it as well as other people

Answer 3

Scientifically, your body shuts down because you have overloaded it with too much alcohol to metabolize, so your body is constantly digesting, but not getting any energy from the digestion of the alcohol. Your whole body simply shuts itself off, or tries to anyways, to protect itself. Alcohol is a depressant which slows down the functions your body performs on a normal basis, this includes breathing, heartbeat, brain communicating with nerves etc. it also causes your muscles to relax as well. all these effects combine together when alcohol is consumed in large amounts, and the result is the body shutting itself down.

Otherwise, I'd just say you were soft and couldn't handle your liquor intake! :)
