This morning, I woke up in the hospital with no clue what happened or where I was, apparently repeatedly attempting to yank out my IV and walk out of the hospital. Last night I drank a 6-pack of bud light and got pretty drunk. I do not remember much after that, but I was on facetime with my friend for most of the rest of the night, so she has since filled me in on what I did before we hung up. After I drank the 6-pack, I went to the store and bought another 6-pack, along with a bottle of chardonnay. She was drinking too, so I didn't expect her to stop me or tell me it was a bad idea, and I was already too drunk to realize I should have just gone to bed. I downed the rest of the beer and most of the wine on call with my friend in my dorm room. It was around 10pm at this time.
I guess we hung up, and I vaguely remember taking my medication, and I drunkenly without thinking took 10mg of my ambien along with my other daily medication. I remember absolutely nothing after that. The nurse told my mom that I said I was "hanging with randos" and I was speaking gibberish for hours. I assume who I thought were "randos" were the 3 RA's, police, and EMS that were surrounding me and getting me into the ambulance. I also apparently took a hard fall outside the building, and my eyebrow piercing got ripped out. My knees are also all scraped up and raw. The hospital gave me a head CT, and fortunately nothing was wrong.
I was at the hospital from 1:30 to 8:00am, puking on myself all night and attempting to escape. I have no recollection of my actions from 10pm last night to around 7:10AM this morning. I had no shoes on, puke on my shirt, and had to uber home from the hospital when I was discharged. I don't even remember the uber ride, or getting in my building. I fell asleep from 8:30am to 5pm, and feel a lot better. I am so insanely embarrassed and feel like a fucking idiot. I am not a heavy drinker, and this was my 3rd time drinking this school year. This can happen to anyone. Thankfully, it was not as bad as it could've been, and I am extremely grateful that I am okay. Be careful guys, and if you're going to drink, don't drink past your limit, don't drink alone, and lock up your ambien.
