I agree.Ive experienced it. I was drinking at a friends house & there was not many people there.Therefore a drunken me,left alone with my thoughts & sharp objects.
Ive never been so scared & then ashamed before in my life.
Im never drinking again unless im surrounded by friends. It makes it worse because it increases your pain threshold, so i couldnt feel anything, even though without drink it would have been immense pain.
I just wouldnt recomend it.
