tough one i'll break it down the best i can remember which is one shitty memory now. use to have an awesome memory.
any way full on black outs? since it was covered in this thread..uhm i'd say well over a hundred since i started in 1989-90 usually beer and or vodka. i didn't take to nor love whisky to like 2 years later. than it was mainly rum and whisky..which i loved. i really convinced myself all round i needed it back then. no one could have convinced me that i just wanted it. no one. major chip on my shoulders back then. scary how angry i was at everything and everyone but myself. til many years later i hated me just as much. the blackouts ran from I don't know a minute or two to probably days if not longer. I think one of the worst traits I had in those times is I hitchhiked a lot and give away myself sexually for those rides. I think thats when I knew I wasn't just some drunken bum hetero but something more deeply profound and I couldn't labeled anything but just me being me.
as for longest hangovers there are a few that stick out without going into detail on them they ranged from say 2 to 4-5 days...maybe longer. I don't know. Sometimes I'd be drinking a few days or weeks straight every day and when I was literally broke and or not stealing money my hangovers were like the longest work days in a single day. i was so exhausted. my insomnia really kicks in so that doesn't really help on specifics
i've had a few emotional/mental breaks and all the medications that went with that plus drinking all the time.
except for those few though probably 12 or so hours and I was in a decent way/mood
