If you drink..

[marylennox]

How often do you get drunk? Not buzzed but like really drunk, wasted, hangover inducing.

I probably messed up the poll in some way or left something out but whatever. I haven't had coffee yet.

[underwaterrhymes]

I never get hammered anymore. It's been years.

I get buzzed every now and then - usually on special occasions. But usually I limit myself to a glass of wine or two.

[pandora89]

Rarely, maybe once or twice a year at the most. I cant remember the last time I was hung over though.

[wambam]

I haven't been drunk-drunk in 3ish years. The last time was the night before I saw Wicked for the first time, which was in May of 2013.

I've been good and buzzed, but usually it's not because I want to be that way, but because I'm just really enjoying the wine

[TR]

Maybe once every 3 or 4 months? More likely to be less now that my one friend has moved away, lol.

I hate being hungover so much that when it happens, it really straightens me out for awhile until I forget how awful it was.

ETA: I get good and tipsy almost every weekend. Just from drinking wine with BF before, during, and after dinner.

[dreamcrisp1]

Very rarely. Last time was New Year's Eve. I'd say maybe 2-3 times a year. It used to be every weekend. Lol.

[friendz4eva]

Much, much, much less than I used to. Parenting with a hangover is not fun. So maybe about 1 to 2 times a year I will go all out. (But not how I used to "go all out".

[averyjessup]

A few times a year, maybe? I am a miserable, whiny, man-flu style hungover person and try to cut myself off before I get to that level of wasted. I did make the rookie mistake of mixing my drinks this past weekend though, and prosecco/rebujito/vodka ended very very poorly for me.

[noodleskooze]

Basically never. Maybe two times in my life? I don't like the feeling at all.

It used to be once or twice a year, but we don't have alcohol in the house anymore since H is 5 months sober.

I voted several times a year, but it's more like once, maybe twice per year.
And if you're talking about sloppy blackout embarrassing drunk, the answer is never (since college).
But I'll let loose for the annual company party, a wedding, a girls trip, or like karaoke night with my mom and sister during family vacation - just to the point of being silly and feeling a little rough the next morning (and vowing I'll never drink again).

It's not very appealing anymore because KIDS IN THE MORNING. lol

ETA and now I just get hangovers, even if I wasn't tipsy! Wheeee ...

Ditto. I get wine headaches the next morning, or nauseated in the middle of the night even if I didn't even feel very drunk.  Tums and Advil. LAME.

[pantsparty]

I am rarely wasted. I get a hangover once a year or less. Usually it's a miscalculation of eating the right foods and drinking enough water during a night of drinking. The last time I had a hangover was when we had a 4-course tasting menu in Vegas and then went out for a night of drinking. BAD IDEA. But I rallied by mid-day the next day.

I am drunk plenty of times per year without getting a hangover.

This is me, too.

Yeah, I plead the fifth.

I very rarely am hungover though.

[BaliHai]

I haven't been drunk since The Great Margarita Incident of 2009. I've been various levels of buzzed since then, but I really don't drink much at all. Wine has been giving me a really hard time lately, and that was all I was down to.

[awick14]

In the last year I have been twice. Before that I can't remember when the last time was.

[knx9211]

Very, VERY rarely. However, I tend to feel sick the next day even if I'm not completely wasted the night before.

DH and I have been together for 5.5 years. I think he's seen me WASTED 2-3 times.

[circa1978]

I generally fall asleep before I can get drunk these days. I also get buzzed from more than one glass of wine.

[mrsukyankee]

This is hard because I now get hangovers by just having a happy buzz. So, possibly 2x last year I got more than buzzed, and both times were with sport teams during end of season gatherings. This year's field hockey end of season dinner/drinks is on 2 April, so I expect to have a hangover on that Sunday following.

[frkls]

i'm too old for that. there is a definitely line where it's just not fun anymore.

[Deleted]

Maybe a few times a year. 

So far this year I have had alcohol on four occasions:

One shot of whiskey.

A half of a bottle of wine. 

A half of a bottle of wine. 

Maybe two glasses of wine. 

The half bottle times I was drunk/drunkish.

Isn't a half bottle and two glasses the same thing?  How many glasses do you get from a bottle?

[suzyp]

DH and I have no kids and love to go out and watch sports and drink, so, let's just say that I was in Vegas, then we had two sports filled weekends. We have a life style where we can easily do this.

And I hate all you people who don't get hungover. I'm 40 - the next day is usually never any fun. More tired than anything, but being old sucks.

[cereal K]

i voted "several times a year" because, even though it's rare, it's more than once a year. probably quarterly.

but my typical consumption (which doesn't always even get me to a buzz) would lead most of you to suggesting i go to meetings/have a problem. so i'll just back away slowly now...

[hopecounts]

Once a year or so usually I just get a slight buzz at most.

[Deleted]

Monthly.

It always lines up with h coming home, then we have a date night, drink a bit more than usual, have some great sex, then wake up feeling like garbage.

[luckyval]

My definition of drunk is probably different from others.

I'm good and buzzed at least once a week. Drunk? Maybe quarterly. As long as I stick to the same drink and minimize the wine, I don't get hungover.
