General Medical Question - Non Urgent - Spiked?

[sobriquet]

This happened over a year ago, hence the non-urgent label, but have been thinking about it recently and wondering exactly what happened.

So. . .

About a year ago I went out drinking with my mates, had a pint then started drinking a second one. Within about 10 minutes I was, erm, much less inhibited (my mate had to keep telling me to stop grabbing her arse and trying to kiss her, she told me the next day) and within half an hour I was pretty much passing out in the pub. We left and I couldn't hold myself up, couldn't walk, ended up sat on the pavement outside, could barely keep my eyes open, couldn't talk properly. I don't actually remember getting home but apparently my mate drove me back.

Normally I'd just assume I'd drunk too much but this all happened after only one pint (I can normally drink 6 or 7 pints before I'm anywhere near this stage). I'd eaten before I went out to line my stomach etc.

Is it possible I was spiked? Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

In short yes it is possible that you were spiked but because its so long after there is no way to know. it could have just been an odd reaction to the alcohol or some low blood sugar. It comes to how much oyu trust the people you were with? would they really spike you?

I know there's no definite way of knowing at this point, it's just something I've been thinking about.

I do trust the people I was with, but there's always a chance I left my drink somewhere or wasn't 'protecting' it or something.

I've never had a reaction like that to alcohol, especially to such a small amount (relative to what I would normally drink on a night out). It wasn't until recently that the idea I had been spiked even crossed my mind and I don't remember the night in enough detail to say certainly whether my drink was unattended at any point.

Ah well, guess I'll never know. At least the paranoia should keep me on my toes when I'm out now!
