I am a recovering alcoholic and just curious how blackouts seem to happen progressively faster? I’ve heard this is common in people who abuse alcohol.

This is a fascinating thread for a medical professional reading. I think a good number of the stories describe wernicke-korsakoff syndrome. Korsakoff’s is very common among alcoholics due to poor absorption and subsequent, deficiency of vitamin B1. It presents as balnce issues, unstable gait, amnesia, and confusion. It can appear like the sufferer is drunk or has dementia.
