It is not the real us - it is us under the influence of alcohol. No one really knows exactly what causes a blackout either, but we do know exactly how to prevent them.
The best medicine for the consequences of drinking is to not drink. Staying sober will prove to you and to others around you that you are serious about changing your life for the better. Nothing you can say or do will change what you've done, so worrying about it is really just a waste of your time. Focus that attention on ways to plan out your sober life and prevent those types of situations from ever happening again.
