How much can you drink before you consider yourself DRUNK?

I consider myself drunk when I start to lose control of my co-ordination. I can usually drink about four Caesars (the kind in the bottle). Drank 5 once, and had a hell of a hangover the next day, so I am going to limit myself to 4 when I am out. When I was out for Christmas, I drank 2 of my friend's Manhattans that he made, and about four glasses of wine, and a shot of Sljivovica (Croatian plum brandy) and felt fine the next day. LOL Don't worry people, I'm almost blind, so I can't drive. Hubby's almost blind too, and we took a cab so. So what's your limit?

It really depends on the night and the poison. shots will get to me before a cooler or fruity drink, and I can ususally, like most people, hold my booze better with something in my stomache.

I do think many do not even know they are drunk even when they are drunk. I am not a drinker so I am wary of the amount I drink. Often, when I feel hot, I will stop and switch to drowning down ice-water or ice cubes.

My limit is before I get drunk. I don't drink much so when I do go out or drink at home I will only have a couple drinks. My days of getting drunk are long over.

Among other things it depends on how much I've eaten. Two drinks with not much in my stomach, more like four with a full stomach.

My limit is about 6 smirnoff ices or bacardi breezers (both in bottles). Don't get a hangover but the minute I am out in the fresh air lose my balance.

I think its different for everyone depending on body size and how much you use to consuming tolerance level. For me im sorta small and short and not use to drinkin much at one time.... Sooooooooo i would be considered whimpy lol about 2 and i would be totally wasted lol I function just fine on one mixed drink but not much after that. And same here no worries i would never drive even after one sip to risky.

Whatever be the situation or joyous occasion , it is the worst thing to get yourself quite DRUNK....all the merriment ,the happiness and joy withers with an inebriated mood.Hell with it. Moderate drinking should be the motto.

Well i don't know what is my limit, but if you will ask me about the approximate amount, i think i can drink a whole bottle of vodka before i get drunk. I don't know why but it's just that i am really not that easy to get drunk. Have a great day and happy new year.
