I don't think anyone liked to go there. I had many and I can tell you I never got used to them. I never liked them nor went searching for them. In the end it was one of the reason I isolated so much. When I stayed home alone there was less chance for me to hurt myself or anyone else. It also was likely that I would wake up in my own home/bed.
The plain fact was that I drank and when I did I had no control over the amount so a blackout was a symptom of that. If I could have controlled my drinking so the blackout did not happen, I would have. I couldn't.
