I Would Drink Until I Blacked Out

A personal story in the experience: I Am a Recovering Alcoholic
I would use alcohol to solve my problems and it worked for a long time but then it quit working and I wanted to kill myself. I wanted to die because I didn't know how to live without drinking and drinking was making me sick and tired all the time. I would wake up in the morning and wonder how I got home and what I did while I was out.

I too would drink till I blacked out. Sometimes I was in blackout for a day. My last blackout, was when I came out of it, I woke up in a Black Power members bed. He had drug-raped me also. I was just in a pub, left my glass on bar while I was in the ladies room. He must have put something in it. Havn't had a drink since then. It was quite a while ago now, and Im scared to touch alcohol now, here's hoping, but I've said that before.
