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?


3 years sober this august. Eventually the amount of drinking you need to do increases to an unbearable degree for the same amount of “fun”.
Life is much better now. But being an addict sucks, don’t go there.
Congrats, I’m 3 months. Drinking was killing me.
Fuck yeah! My four years is coming up next week 💪 Life really is better without it
The brain gets tuned to the increasing amount of alcohol. Congratulations for the 3 years!
