*ALCOHOL*

[Merc]

Started out a good night; we (hubby, daughter, me) were playing guitars, singing, goofinmg around. Moved inside when it got cooler and daughter brought out amp and microphone , so tunes on, singing.
Hubby and i had a few drinks, really only a few. But....
I had a blackout.
I woke up with no clue how i got to bed
when i got to bed
lost a few hours too. I remember one song, singing it...then lost a whole other tape worth's of sons and time...
Not even glimpses of it...just nothing.
And im realizing that it isnt ther firsty....i thought my forgetting was just that, forgetting. Now i wonder...it happens so frequent. I always blamed it on meds, past meds, depression...its what i thought it was....
Last night scared me.
really has scared me.
sorry, may seem silly or trivial...but its really got to me

hi sweetie...
blackouts are really scary. and i dont think its trivial at ALL. if you only had a few drinks then it probably wasnt the drink. maybe dissociation??? i know how scary that is. im so sorry romp. can you think of anything that triggered it??? i know that for me, nothing has to trigger me. it just happens. but yes, you have every right to be concerned about this. and i would say tell your doc..but damnit, the bastards arent treating you right!!! sorry for getting aggressive. but i adore you and it angers me that you really need their help and keep getting overlooked. BUT you are NEVER overlooked here hunni.
love you to pieces.

maybe the alcohol mixing with your meds? mand x

what did you hubby say? did he see any change in you? like were you acting differently or did he not notice? sounds like it could be the alcohol either not reacting well to your body or to your meds. either way its not good though.

thanks guys
well it turns out my 'few' drinks was quite a few more than i thought...i onlyu remembered a few and then had to be mixing really astrong ones as i drank nearly a whole bottle of vodka....and yes asked hubby next day and he said he mentioned it to me , noticing i was acting , talking different and asjked was i okay...but i dont remember that either :o(...
so it was the alcohol...and i think i took a double dose of meds, took what i was meant to , fprgot and took another dose of them..so just all of it...but FINALLY i get seen by the local MH team...so it looks good. I wont go on about it here too...i made another post of it! LOL
anyways, thanks guys
much luv
