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?


Where I live, it’s like everything is centered around drinking. My foreign friends were kind of shocked my office always has a fridge fully stocked with beer.
I got sick and can’t drink anymore and it’s honestly quite lonely. I was hoping to at least see some health benefits after quitting but haven’t noticed any yet.
