Not sure about grabbing that beer? You’re not alone. Americans are reaching for alcohol at record lows, according to a new Gallup survey.
The survey, out Aug. 20, found the number of Americans who say they drink alcohol sits at 54% for the second consecutive year − and health concerns appear to be a major factor.
“Fifty-one percent of U.S. adults now believe drinking one or two alcoholic beverages a day is bad for one’s health,” the survey results noted. “The figure is essentially unchanged from last year’s record-high 53%.”
In 2001, only 27% considered moderate drinking bad for one’s health, according to Gallup.
It induces anxiety in the alcoholics around me.
I recall reading some studies showing that it starts to catch up to you, and can certainly say this was my experience. After about 10 years of chronic, heavy use I started to have serious issues with panic and dpdr and had to quit.
If you abuse Mary Jane, she will leave your ass eventually ime.
I’m am alcoholic, recovering from heavy drinking for the past 20 years, and weed has always given me anxiety. I wish I could love it but I get so locked in my head and the thoughts just spiral. And in the rare cases that it doesn’t give me anxiety it just makes me so sleepy that I can’t even function
Yeah my family member and a neighbor tried it, and vape or bud, they do not do well with it.
Weed is not for everyone, and that’s okay.
