What are possible long-term effects from consistent alcohol-related blackouts?

Question:

Answers:
Long-term drinking of moderate to large quantities of alcohol can cause liver damage. Heavy drinking can cause serious nervous and mental disorders, including permanent brain damage(the answer to your question). Ulcers, gastritis, pancreatitis, diabetes, high blood pressure, malnutrition and some cancers are also more common among chronic heavy drinkers than among the general population. Heavier users may also experience periods of amnesia called blackouts. During these periods, the person functions, but later cannot remember what he or she has done during this time.
You are only born with a finite number of brain cells. Blackouts are the bodies way of telling you that the alcohol is now killing these cells.
