Anybody else’s alcohol tolerance go up when they haven’t drank for a while?

Took a month or so off drinking to cut calories, went out last night and had 3 beers and 6 shots in 2.5 hours and I was basically fine.

Woke up today more tired than usual but no hangover at all.

Don't think it works that way bro

I always get the most BRUTAL hangovers after I've went a stint of not drinking for a couple months. Never quitting again

With beer yes, with hard liquor I’m done after one or two drinks if I haven’t drunk for a while
if you ain't got no money, this is about to be a real short conversation, you dig?

That's not how that works, breh. You've got one of two things going on, here:


1. You had higher alcohol tolerance temporarily due to time sensitive external factors and simply confused that with having a higher alcohol tolerance in general. Like you drank on an emptier stomach/while less hydrated or something when you felt like your alcohol tolerance was lower.

2. You're such an alcoholic, that you've damaged your liver to a point where it stops operating efficiently. Less efficient, more unhealthy liver means lowered ability to process the alcohol out of your system.


Either way, cut that stupid chit out. It's doing you absolutely zero favors. srs.
