Alcohol Dependence: Yes, You miss Old Times of being able to drink a lot. Would you like to be older and wiser now? Let the Wise Woman within you ask: • Concern about your Blackouts • Risk of physical and emotional harm • Dependence on Alcohol • Effects on your body, mind, relationships, work • Need to see Psychiatrist for assessment of Dependence on Alcohol, and Rehab Program • AA Meetings • Therapy for stress

Yes there is.: DON'T DRINK to excess!!!!! Blackouts are an indication that you are drinking more than is healthy, and if you cannot moderate your drinking, it is an even greater indication that you have developed an alcohol use disorder, aka alcoholism. Blackouts are associated with the possibility of later permanent damage to your memory, as well as increasing the chance of accidents&unwanted sexual activity.
