Let me begin by saying, I drink very rarely; few times a year.

When I drink, i get the feeling that my brain in running on powersaving mode; only the most basic functions are operational. It’s a fun feeling when I’m drinking, but I can’t imagine doing that regularly.

I’m not sure if this constitutes as bragging but I am proud of the fact that I can recall information quite well, and any activity which hinders this is not to my liking. The hangover is also bad, where the brain is slow for the next entire day.

I want to know the community thinks about drinking and how it effects/doesn’t affects their work and life and how they get around it. Any alternatives and tips?

    I think everyone is going to have their own opinion on this. Obviously it’s not great for health. Just like any substance, it feels good for some… Not so much for others. Some people get dependent, others not. I think it’s a very personal thing. If you can have a few drinks here and there without it causing problems… More power to you! If it becomes how you function or a daily habit, take a fucking break man. Or stop entirely.
