I'm so pissed right now.
I normally never drink, I view it as poison. I'm a Medical cannabis patient and I'm livid that cannabis puts people in jail without a card, yet they can go drink something that will make them ill, or die.
I drank about 6 - 8 shots Saturday night, and blacked out...I woke up yesterday morning with worst hangover ever, and as I type this I'm still nausea, dizzy, headache, tired, no appetite. I force ate yesterday and drank tons of water and a few aspirin.
WTF DO I DO?
AM I PERMA HUNG OVER????? NEVER DRINKING AGAIN.
In 1998 1400 people died in USA as DIRECT RESULT OF ALCOHOL POISON.
drinking and driving causes over 25,ooo deaths a year. overall 100,000 deaths occur each year due to the effects of alcohol.Correction: According to the NHTSA web site (nrd.nhtsa.dot.gov/pdf/nrd-30/NCSA/RNotes/2006/810686.pdf), there were 43,443 alcohol related traffic fatalities in 2005 in the USA. As a comparison, AIDS claimed 18,000 lives in 2003.
How can alcohol be blamed for 100,000 deaths each year?
5% of all deaths from diseases of the circulatory system are attributed to alcohol.
15% of all deaths from diseases of the respiratory system are attributed to alcohol.
30% of all deaths from accidents caused by fire and flames are attributed to alcohol.
30% of all accidental drownings are attributed to alcohol.
30% of all suicides are attributed to alcohol.
40% of all deaths due to accidental falls are attributed to alcohol.
45% of all deaths in automobile accidents are attributed to alcohol.
60% of all homicides are attributed to alcohol.
(Sources: NIDA Report, the Scientific American and Addiction Research Foundation of Ontario.) Also see Alcohol Consumption and Mortality, Alcohol poisoning deaths, CDC report,
100,000 deaths. That's more than a statistic. That is 100,000 individuals with faces. 100,000 individuals with lives not fully lived. 100,000 individuals grieved by mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, and children. Every year.
