Looking for some advice

Hey guys, I’m a college student who has recently been getting into some parties that involve alcohol. I’ve never been a heavy drinker, but I enjoy the occasional social beer, and December was always the time I drank the most because of family gatherings. Imagine my surprise when I took a hard apple cider and 4 shots of vodka and came out of it feeling just a bit foggy. Apparently that’s a good amount of resistance, and I’m 5’1 so I don’t know what could be giving me that except for genetics. it sucked to go to bed though because laying down gave me nausea and I was gassy as shit. Essentially, I don’t know where my limit is, and I want to find it just to know, but if feeling tipsy leaves me so disoriented I don’t really want to repeat the experience. Any advice? Should I push to see where I land, or be careful because I’m just not feeling what could be poisoning my body pretty strongly? Above 4 shots feels excessive you know?
