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 really enjoyed the drinking and weed combo (getting wasted all the time and skipping most of the hang over with weed felt like a life hack), thought i could do it forever - but then it just felt normal at some point. In the end alcohol gave me gout attacks and weed gave me random anxiety attacks.
I miss them like toxic lovers, but i know they’re shit and totally not worth it. Learning how to “be sober” was really hard as a result of doing it for so long.
