I may be getting drunk/high with a friend in the near future, what are some things to consider and watch out for? (lemmings.world)

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?

It's really easy to feel like so far, everything has been feeling great and you're not even really that drunk yet so why not have another drink? It's also easy, each time you have a drink to be less good at deciding if having another one is a good idea until you're quite suddenly really quite drunk and now you can't do anything about it and also the effect continues so my best advice is, if it's feeling 'pretty great, I could take more', that's the perfect time to stop because you've probably got away with the buzz you wanted but not all the consequences of getting way drunker than you meant to.

It's probably too late to meaningfully contribute to this thread, but I think this is the best advice I've read so far.

Thanks mate haha glad my veteran underage drinking shenanigans were good for something other than misspent youth. Hope OP saw it before they decided that another drink will probably be fine. 🥳🥴🤢🤮😪
