Okay so last saturday night a friend and i decided to go to a party. She’s been to many parties before but this was my first time. I was having a good time and woke up later in my friends bed covered in dried puke. She then later to tell me i was going crazy there. i puked in this guys apartment and blacked out. i was also asking other guys if they wanted to get down. i’m so embarrassed. she also told me i kept blacking out and i had to be carried. is this normal?

Blacking out, puking, and not remembering what happened isn’t “normal”, it’s your body reacting to way too much alcohol (or possibly something being slipped in your drink). It happens to a lot of people their first time, but it’s definitely a warning sign to slow down and be careful. Don’t beat yourself up, you learned your limit the hard way. Next time, pace yourself, stick with people you trust, and watch your drink.
I jumped in water and got all wet. Is this normal?
Sounds like a normal Saturday
How much of what were you drinking? If you don’t know what you were drinking- why not? If you know what, do you know how much you drank? How much do you remember before you go blank?
Parties with strangers (and even with friends of friends) can spell danger because there are always predators out there. If it was your first party, your blackout may have been self-imposed (not really knowing how to drink or how not to drink). Or a drink may have been laced, in which case if all you did was get a bit crazy, blackout, and puke, you should count yourself lucky.
Always control your drink (never put it down and never let anyone hold it). Once you lose control of your drink (no matter what it is- alcohol, soda, water, juice, tea), dump it and get a fresh one. If you can drink something with a lid or cap all the better.
If your blackout was self imposed, learn from it. Limit yourself on how much you drink and switch it up then to something non alcoholic. If you can’t switch over or you think, ehh just one more, then maybe you need to evaluate drinking at all
Waking up covered in puke? That’s so dangerous! You could have aspirated! (Choked). Try to pace yourself and drink a lot water in between drinks. Worse things could have happened. I don’t think I need to spell it out for you. Stay safe!
That sounds like you were drugged 😢
