Health: Today, I went to my first ever high school party with music,...

Today, I went to my first ever high school party with music, drinks, and dancing. Within a few minutes of taking my first ever shot of tequila, I was in the worst pain in my life. My parents were called and I had to be taken to the hospital. I'm alcohol intolerant. FML

Today, I went to my first university party already a little drunk. I perched on the end of a table to cool off from the dancing and the whole table tipped over and dumped me onto the floor. I was promptly laughed out of the room. FML

Today, I helped myself to a small glass of cocktail from the fridge, not realising it was alcoholic. I told my mom what happened. She made me drink salty water until I vomited so I wouldn't get "alcohol poisoning". I'm 19. FML

Today, I went to my first ever party as a freshman, with friends from my dorm. There was a dance floor, and despite never having danced in public before, I put my best efforts into my dance moves… only to end up dislocating my knee. It's safe to say I won't be winning any dance contests anytime soon. FML

Today, it's my twenty first birthday. My biggest birthday surprise was discovering that I'm alcohol intolerant, by vomiting my first beer all over my boyfriend's mother. FML

Today, I was confronted by my father after I got back home from a party in the early hours. He demanded to know if I'd been doing any drugs, and then decided to give me a scare lecture on the dangers of alcohol. I'd had a few beers. He had the smell of tequila on his breath. FML

Today, I pulled up to a party with my friends. I never partied in high school and college due to being bullied, so I was excited for my first party. It turned out to be a college house party, I'm a little older by 3 years but it’s no big deal. They mistook me for a freshman and I was bullied. FML

Today, for my 18th birthday, I went out to a club with my mate and I drank so much I ended up breaking my nose. I was there for an hour. FML

Today, I went to a party with 5 of my friends. Within five minutes, they'd all paired up and gone. Then it was just me, drinking my pain away. FML

Today, at dinner, I accidentally let it slip that I'd taken a small sip of alcohol a few years ago and hated it. My extremely strict parents are now trying to get me into rehab. FML

You're intolerant because you're STILL IN ******* HIGH SCHOOL. I realise many people here are not from the US, but in Florida (where OP is from), it is illegal to drink under age 21. It's illegal for a reason. To all the idiots here saying "lol kids start drinking at 13 get a life lololooloool" you need to shut your immature, clueless little mouths. I've seen more kids killed while drunk driving than I'd care to mention. I just pronounced an 18 year old dead last week because he thought he could drive drunk and get away with it. He didn't. You can vote me down all you want, but that's the damned truth.

What people fail to see is that OP never said she was in highschool. She could be a loser of legal drinking age going to a highschool party. XD

I would like to know what tests were done to prove that the OP is alcohol intolerant. I only ask because if the tequila is the first alcohol she has ever had than how do they know she's not allergic to blue agave? I'm sure it's possible to be alcohol intolerant but it just seems more likely to me that she would allergic to that plant.

It was probably just a safe guess. Allergy tests take ages, and since tests for every single element are lengthy and probably cost a lot(though depends on the country, I guess) it's safer to just assume OP's allergic to the alcohol. The only way she'll know for sure if she tries alcohol again(of another kind) to see if the experience repeats(case in which OP might be doing a bit too much for the sake of alcohol...), since I doubt her parents would invest money so that their daughter can drink.

Congratulations on discovering that alcohol affects you in said manner. At least now you know to avoid alcohol consumption for future situations. It could have been worse though, you could have found this out whilst participating in a game in which you would drink a considerable amount of alcohol. And also, don't let your friends walk over you and make you the designated driver as a result of this discovery. No FML or YDI, I think it was just self-discovery.
