after my 5 years in college i have come to the conclusion that probly 60% of the people who go to detox don't need it. think about it. most people who go, don't get the stomach pumped or eat charcoal, they are just there for observation. The only reason you should go is if your pulse is super weak. If someone is puking uncontrollably too bad for them, throw a backpack on them so they cant sleep on their back and let them sleep it off in the bathroom.
bottom line, if you go to the hospital cause "you drank too much" and they don't pump your stomach, you a bitch. oha and passed out mother fuckers that you can't wake up are funny, not scary. just check the pulse every so often.
