I'm 15/f. Last night for Halloween I went to a small party with my friends and s bunch of guys and even people I didnt know. I don't remember a lot but I had my friend who was sober tell me what happened. I binge drank the whole freaking night and got drunk within the first hour of the party because I never paced myself. I kept wanting more alcohol but people hid it from me. At one point during the party I tripped on something and fell backwards into a wooden chair and almost knocked myself out. After that I completely broke and had a mental breakdown and anxiety attack. I have anxiety and I self harm along with many disorders. So some more sober people took me away from the group and I kept saying 'give me a knife, I need to cut'. And so those people know about that now and I'm so mad at myself. Also, I got up on a trampoline and did 2 backflips perfectly and landed them. Um she also told me that this guy who've I've been texting for so long and we flirt and I'm not really sure how I feel about him but we were attached all night. Like we were dancing really close and then he took care of me when I had to pee or something. But he was still high from weed and so we would sit on a comfy bench and I put my legs on his knees and we had our arms completely just around each other. I know this because my friend took photos as proof. I think I might've kissed him on the cheek at this point but I don't know. Also we decided to move the party into this barn thing because it was so cold and I had to be carried in because I could barely walk. Um then that guy and I were almost passed out on top of this picnic table and he sat up and pulled me into his lap and I was pretty much out but I tried to stay awake. My friend said that his hands were all up my backside and my shirt and he kept leaning down to whisper things to me and In the photos it looks like he's kissing my neck and then it looks like he just kissed me on the mouth. I kinda like this guy before I got drunk and since this happened I'm not sure where to go from here.. Will my memory come back fully of what happened because I don't remember things. Also, what do I do about this guy? And what is someone's intake on all of this ?
Your brain, though you were awake, wasn't able to record memory, or help run motor functions like leg for walking, or arms, hands very well. So no, you're not going to have any memory of it. Alcoholics have no recollection of their actions once drunk,that's been proven many times over. they may only see evidence of the results of what they did while drunk.
Of course you know by law you are too young to drink. I'm not going to tell you not to but instead instruct as to why there is such a law. For one thing, teens don't have full maturity of the brain yet, the body yes, brain no. The pre- is a section of the brain that weighs outcomes, forms judgments and controls impulses and emotions. This section of the brain also helps people understand one another. The pre-frontal cortex section of the brain in teens is still a little immature as compared to adults; and it doesn't fully develop until your mid-20s. That's one big reason why it is best to wait to start doing social drinking. Have you heard how pregnant women are warned not to drink any alcohol? The reason is the same, it's affects the development of the child in utero, especially the brain. The growing ability of the brain to full maturity is repressed if there is a tendency to a habit of drinking often. That would mean a baby born with health issues. For a young teen, who knows how it would stunt your brains normal growth. Imagine if what you know right now at 15 is all you're capable of at 25, 40, 60? Basically, you'd be an adult with issues as far as mental capabilities. This doesn't even take into account what it does to ones liver. Teens because of incomplete ability to think things out and weigh consequences means not making good decisions and not think out.
So for the sake of your brain being able to continue to mature and the health of your liver, I hope you think twice about getting into a habit of drinking like this at parties. It is teens who drink like this at parties once they drive who never think to call someone sober to come get them, and they drive drunk and they and their passengers have a great chance of being injured or dying in a traffic accident.
Now a little lesson to explain why both you and he could behave as friendly as you did when in usual life, it's not so easy for you to do. The normal inhibitions we have when sober, the way our conscious mind feels timid, scared, unsure of self is suppressed or put to sleep when alcohol is drunk.
With the conscious mind asleep, your sub-conscious mind comes out to play. the subconscious is where all our emotions are stored so all your longings and feelings for him, and him for you, are unrestricted now and come to the surface. The subconscious I find is often like our inner child in its way of thinking and coming to conclusions. One of the jobs of our subconscious is to find ways to protect us from our fears and to get us what we secretly desire, whether what we fear or desire is based in reality or a good decision or not. That is why you both acted like that when drunk.
I found ways to get past my inhibitions while totally sober and have fun without alcohol. It can be done but too many prefer to use alcohol to get there rather than naturally. I would suggest you start to work on getting there naturally.

We all do things we probably regret or don't know what's going on when we're inebriated, so clear it up over clear minds.
