So this will be my first time getting drunk drunk, and my friend is a year older than me and has done it several times before. I could have him watch me, but there may be a chance that he'd be high/drunk too, so what are some things to watch out for and consider during my first time getting drunk if I'm able to go to his house?

And don’t drink spirits. Keep your drinks to lower alcohol percentages (e.g. beer) so you can control your intake and moderate how quickly you get drunk and how drunk you get.

And if you start to notice you’re struggling with basic motor skills (using your hands, walking, standing, etc) it’s time to stop and switch to water. And maybe eat some carbohydrates and fats.

Exactly. Spirits can kill you and you have to try reeeaally hard with beer
