Alcohol … how’s your relationship with it ?

[perth_blue]

Consecutive nights boozing catches up quicker as you age a bit. That capacity to shake off the effects starts waning. Felt horrendous yesterday. Up early and much clearer this morning. Wont buy booze again this January.

The feeling of when you pull through is quite amazing though.

Trying to stay off it, previous record in 20+ years is 6 days, i'm on day 4 reading the Allen Carr alcohol book which is helping and this was a good watch

The mental downside of drink, especially the day after, far out weighs the physical downside for me - but I am pretty fit physically so it's probably easy for me to say

Rarely do I have say more than 3 beers/half a bottle of wine in one sitting unless I've gone out with my mates properly in the day, which doesn't happen loads

But even with that, there is no hangover but still sometimes I get some anxiety from it but I forget that I had those drinks the day before because I feel physically fine. In some ways the subtly makes it worse for me.

If I've taken half a gram of mdma or something, I expect to feel a bit wavy the next few days but small amounts of alcohol seem to get to you a lot more quietly

Depends what you drink for I guess, I really like the taste so not drinking something you like the taste of for 7 days or so can seem a bit pointless if you only have like a glass of wine/pint now and again

I doubt I've gone for over a week many times, COVID was once and another time was when I started microdosing ketamine at uni for 6 months or so, so I'm not sure that one really counts as that did nottttt end well funnily enough

Well it started as a nice idea to take some and look around art galleries, and it ended up me upsetting a girl I was seeing so much that she had to go to 6 months of counselling after she cut contact.... And I only found that out when I bumped into her in an airport like 10 years later so I would not recommend!

Well it started well/fine during uni terms but it turned into a disaster during the summer holidays as I guess I lost the structure of the days to stay sensible, although I didn't see that at the time and I thought I was the one that was being victimised - so just classic behaviour of someone taking too many drugs at one point on their life

I managed to alienate a large number of my friends when I was taking ket regularly. Abhorrent stuff.

Death to regretamine.
