Common conclusions

Based on your answers, it is unlikely that you experience alcohol intoxication after ingesting alcohol. However, you may be displaying a sign related to it. Alcohol intoxication should be taken very seriously. It affects your body in several ways, including your heart rate, body temperature, and breathing. In very bad cases it can even lead to coma or death. There may also be a possibility that you are just alcohol intolerant. In any case, it is important to seek medical attention.

While it is unlikely that you have alcohol intoxication, you are displaying some signs related to it. It may be wise to seek medical attention. An alcohol intoxication needs some time to recover. The patient will be hospitalized until his body is reacting normal again. It is likely that someone in the recovery period feels uncomfortable, depressed, and lacking appetite. It can take a long time for someone to feel normal again. But an alcohol intoxication can be survived if the right treatment is given quickly. Besides, it may be important to reconsider your drinking behavior and if necessary, ask professional help.

Unfortunately, you are displaying the symptoms typically seen among individuals who have alcohol intoxication. It may be essential to seek medical support promptly. In case you are around someone who is showing symptoms, you should immediately call your local emergency services. It may be important to turn the person on their side to prevent choking or vomiting. If the person is conscious, bring him some water and encourage him to drink it. Alcohol intoxication should be handled in the hospital and will not just go away after a night of sleep. It may be crucial to reconsider your drinking behavior and if necessary, ask professional help to stop excessive drinking.
