There are so many kinds of drinks, but majorly we have the alcoholic and non alcoholic, alcoholic drinks gets one intoxicated (which we most times refer to as being high) when taken in excess and some gets intoxicated even when they take a little. Wwhile non alcoholic drinks examples includes fruit juice, soda etc. we refer to alcoholic drinks as soft drinks, because one rarely get high or do not get intoxicated at all when they take them.
Drinking is not my thing at all, I do not like alcoholic drinks neither do I like soft drinks because it contains a lot of sugar, I only take soft drinks once in a blue moon. But something happened some years back, like five years ago, it was actually during my NYSC when I was in Niger state, Nigeria. One of my friends was celebrating his birthday so I was there to celebrate him, but little did I know how strong what I was drinking, they had mixed it before I came, I thought it was just yoghurt with some good wine, because obviously I was seeing Hollandia Yoghurt but I couldn't see the wine so it was creamy and very sweet with cow skin that has been properly garnished.
Man is already getting drunk without knowing, until after few hours when the alcohol started reacting, I was not feeling comfortable, it was as if I wanted to vomit but I couldn't, I went inside the rest room, lying down on the floor as if I wanted to swim, during this times I don't know what I was doing, I thought everything is abnormal, and then my friends were already looking for me, only for them to find me inside the rest room lying down like someone who's trying to swim. I had very hilarious friends, instead of them to help, thy were making jest of me, trying to whine me so that I can start saying nonsense for them to record and show me afterwards, they were already making videos of me while all this was happening. They carried me out of the toilet and put in outside still within our compound, so that the recording will be more interesting.
I didn't get myself all through that day, it was the next day I regained my consciousness full time. There was no casualty whatsoever just the funny moments that was captured, I got to see the videos the next day, I didn't even bother to tell them to delete because I know they won't. Even after many years that the incident happened, one of my friends shared a little of the clip with me during my birthday last year, still trying to make jest of me, and we both laughed about it.
I guess it was because I wasn't used to drinking alcohol that was why I got intoxicated that much, someone that's used to it and one that's drinking responsibly would already know his or her limit and stop there to avoid stories that touch.
Definitely I don't want such situation to occur again, initially I don't take alcohol, so what happened was just coincidence, and I'll try to be very careful next time before I take any drinks especially in parties like that.
