If you're really drunk can you control yourself.

Have you ever been really drunk?

not at all.

If you’re drunk enough to puke, then you can’t stop it.

I have, on several occasions become almost drunk enough to puke. I really felt like it, but was able to not do it. I doubt, though, that that counts.

Sometimes, depends on the time and place. If I’m sitting down generally I’m good. However if I’m being an active drunk then sometimes it just happens on its own.

@daloon… lurve for that that

I loved the empire strikes back

Nope, can’t control it. The WORST is dry heaves, though.

But I haven’t been that drunk in years!

<—absolutely no control here… just ask the couple dozen friends/boyfriends/strangers who have had me drunk vomit on or around them. I’ve ruined quite a few pairs of boots, sweatshirts, t-shirts, pants, upholstery, etc. and definitely DID NOT do any of it on purpose. On the upside, though, I’ve ALWAYS apologized – during my tears and continued puking…

This is one of many reasons why I no longer drink alcohol :/...

Oh, no. I was asked if I was okay, and was I going to throw up. My head said I’m fine, I’m not going to throw up, and when I opened my mouth to articulate that comment, I erupted like Mt. Vesuvius inside a friend’s brand new-paid-for-it-himself-just-had-it-two-days-car. Going 60 miles an hour on the expressway. It was awful.

Me+Really Drunk=No Control

@AlfredaPrufrock I had a similar situation once (only I was 8 y.o. so I obviously was not drunk). Once my mother finally pulled over and I was able to stop puking, she asked me why the heck I had not told her I had to puke… well that’s kind of hard to tell someone when your mouth is full of vomit. That’s exactly what I was trying to tell her when it came out. Duh.

I’ve definitely been in the position where I was so drunk that I couldn’t not puke. I was at a friends house on monday and we drank wayyy to much wiskey that I got so drunk I puked in his toilet then came out and tried to sit down and relax but was still so drunk i just got up and left, leaving my wiskey, coat, hat, and cigarettes on his table without saying bye and tried to throw up outside his apartment but nothing came out so i just walked home stupid drunk and passed out at 7 at night lol.

random story i know…

Up to a point you would probably be alright. But everyone has their limit, and once you hit the wall, you can’t do much of anything.

That’s what i said. NO CONTROL OF PUKING. :D

And I shouldn’t probably blow my prim and proper image by mentioning that by the time he went across the street to retrieve my husband from a friend’s house, they returned to find that I had stripped off all my clothing and was standing quite naked in the front yard of our apartment…That was in my very young days, so it was not an altogether unpleasant sight. It was, however, enough of an “incident” to cause me to not drink to excess ever again.

Absolutely not. If you’re wasted and you have to yak, then you have to yak.
On the bright side, once you’ve yakked you feel a bit better.
Another shot anyone? =]

I’m pretty smashed, no yaking yet /:D

yes. ive drank a lot in my tim e and i have honestly never blacked out.

i blame my excellent drinking genes. ;)

Once that drunk, one must do what one must do. I have never puked on anyone or anything but in the toilet or in the bushes…so I guess I must have some control, since I have enough time to get to an acceptable location. Not enough control to not do it at all though.

@AlfredaPrufrock My image of you is shattered! In a good way :)

No, you can’t control vomiting. If you’re really drunk, the most common reason you puke is because your body sees the alcohol queue you’ve formed and says “no way, I can’t process all of this,” and eliminates it the easiest way it knows how to, back out the way it came in. There are some other triggers for nausea when drunk, including rapid movements, and of course drinking more.

I mean it really does depend on how drunk you are because I have definitely forced myself to throw up by shoving a finger down my throat when I was really drunk and needed to sober up or stop everything from spinning so much.

But I’ve also held it back but yeah after a certain point there is no controlling it and attempting to control it will result in a horrible accident…lol

The one & only time I’ve ever been so drunk as to throw up was way back when I was about 19. I’d had VERY little experience with alcohol. My now husband & I had been to a party & I drank way too much vodka. On the way home that night, I all of a sudden hollered “stop the car!” I opened the door & let it go. He was literally holding on to my belt so’s I wouldn’t fall out of the car. That’s the last time anything like THAT’s ever happened. After all these years, I still can’t stand the smell of vodka! URP!

@blondesjon, yes I have been really drunk. Half a bottle of 1800. Tequila is my thing.

No control at all! One time I was visiting relatives in Seattle. It was a beautiful night, so we decided to hop into the hot tub on the patio. Normally I just drink beer, but was offered some wine instead. The last thing that I remember saying that night was “I’m drinking wine more often, this is good!”. I guess my husband ended up holding my hair back that night while I puked away.

I stick with beer now, anything else makes me puke

When I am really drunk I know I am going to puke. I know my limits generally but for the times I choose to get obliterated I either pass out before puking or puke and then pass out. Haha. I’m always coherent too, even up untill that point. I remember everything, though hazy.. I don’t black out or anything. Good stuff.

the fact of the matter is that if u get to the point when u r so drunk u puke u cant control it because your brain is momentarly fried and that messes up your moter skills wich means u cant possibly hold it in. imature

Thank you everyone. Point PROVED :D
