Alcohol is poison. Feel bad for anyone addicted (srs)

I'm not a big drinker. Never have been. I've had maybe 5totaldrinks over the last 2 months on 3-4 different dates.

Last night I had 2-3 glasses of wine on a date.

Today I have a menacing brain foggy headache and can't concentrate on jack ****. Slept like **** too.

I feel bad for anyone that does this regularly because they are addicted. Must really suck.

Honestly I don't think I'm going to drink anymore.

Whenever I drink regularly I actually get no hangovers. Whenever I take a few weeks break I might actually get a hangover the first time drinking again. I guess some people deal with it better than others.

It only kills gains you worked so hard for in gym.

It's also a proven carcinogen.

I can relate to this. After a really bad hangover I start to get my chit together for a week or so. Then I do it again.

You need to find the right amount to make sure you get no hangovers. If I do anything like liquor or wine I'm completely fukked up the next day. If I down 2-3 six packs in a night I'm 100% the next morning.

It really depends on my sleep. If I can stop a few hours before I go to sleep I'm usually good the next day.

^This. The body acclimates. The worst I get is feeling more tired than I normally would on just a few hours of sleep.

I know a person who has has been an alcoholic for a decade and has alcohol based dementia because of it.
She is wicked mean and nasty to her family if she doesn't get her wine, and then she can't remember that she was a bitch.
She waits for 4:59pm daily.
There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and...It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!

Lack of sleep is definitely the most brutal. If I'm drinking and I get just 1-2 hours less sleep than I need it definitely does fuk me up.

Interesting. I always drink right up until the point of sleeping.

I've always been a big drunker.

In jan'23 I took on "dry till july"

No drinking until mid-july when I go to Vienna.

Apparently I'm lightly addicted to alcohol because I crave it a lot. I really really really want a drink.

Must be a bitch to quit. All over the place in your face. Advertisements, liquor stores all over the place, people around you happily drinking, etc.
Uncontrollable behavior with some psychopathic tendencies

Brah, a wine bottle was meant for one person for one meal. "American" culture??? Jesus Euro-cucks drink like fish.

Westerners are very puritan in regards to alcohol. Go to europe or SEA if you want to know what real drinking looks like

If a few drinks makes you non-functional the next day then you're weak af

Alcohol adds nothing to your life. It's just poison
