Binge Drinking A popular definition of binge drinking is having a whole lot to drink in a short time, and loading up on alcohol can lead to alcohol poisoning. A person who drinks too much, too quickly can poison him or herself as alcohol builds up in toxic levels in the body.
Some people drink to the point of passing out.
Passing out is different than sleeping. It means someone has drunk so much that he or she is unconscious. If you get no response, then he or she is unconscious, and medically speaking, near death. Anyone who is unconscious for any reason needs medical attention. Call 515-3333 or 911 to get help.
