i am unable to take shots anymore
as the title mentions, i am unable to take shots of alcohol anymore. does anyone know why?
for some context, everytime i drink, my body feels fine. the only discomfort i ever really get is the hangover. however, about a month and a half or so ago, my friends and i went out to drink, and i took maybe 6 shots of tequila or some other alcohol in total (6 shots is normally nothing for me), i dont remember exactly what it was but i know i drank them way quicker than i usually do, all maybe within 10-15 minutes or so. we ate before drinking, and i had maybe 3 cocktails before starting to take shots. i had the urge to throw up midway thru the shots, which did end up happening when i went to the washroom. after that, i got back and drank some more. i drank too much water too quickly trying to dilute all of the alcohol, which i really regret, because i ended up throwing up right on the table as i get up and try to get to the washroom. it was all watery, very disgusting, but all i really vomited out was water. after i got home, i was quite uncomfortable already because i got extremely carsick, ended up eating some watermelon. maybe twenty minutes later, i was very uncomfortable, felt like i needed to vomit, but it wasnt coming out, i ended up forcing myself to vomit into the toilet. i felt a bit better after this, showered and slept. the next evening, i went to play badminton with my friend (we already booked a court like one week prior), i played quite easy already but i still wasnt feeling so well and i end up leaving early. i got home and vomited again. the following day, i threw up again (forced as i felt extremely uncomfortable). after all of this vomiting, i felt better. i dont know exactly how to describe it, but it felt like there was still some more needed to be vomited out, but i did not want to again as it is very uncomfortable to force-vomit and i just went on with that slight discomfort. for the week, i gradually felt better and the discomfort was gone (i also had zero appetite the whole week). this whole event was really odd as it had never happened to me, im guessing its either from drinking too quickly, or vomiting too much. does anyone know the exact reason and can maybe explain??? please and thank you!!
i havent really touched alcohol much as anything but cocktails would make me very uncomfortable, and have the urge to threw up.
maybe two weeks ago, we went out again. i took a tiny tiny tiny sip of a shot, my lip barely even touched the surface of it, and i felt the urge to throw up when it got to my mouth. i didnt throw up but have never touched a shot since then either.
i know this is a good sign to stay away from alcohol, which i am. but not being able to take shots makes me feel like im missing out on an ability to do something, additionally it doesnt really feel the same when we go clubbing without taking shots. i was wondering what i can do to fix this condition so that maybe i will actually be able to take even just one shot.
short description:
-maybe 1.5 months ago, i took 6 shots in a short amount of time (6 is barely anything for me but it was done way quicker than i ever had before)
-vomited maybe five times, about half were forced by myself.
-feel choked and the urge to vomit even if its just a few drops of a shot, this is after a month not really touching alcohol for a month
-anyone know why it happens and how i can fix it?
sorry for the long description, but i just wanted to share with lots of details to make it clearer. any help will be appreciated!! thank you for your time !!
