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?

    I only have a drink at the weekend now, and usually only a couple of pints of beer or a couple of glasses of wine.

    I very very rarely drink enough to get drunk, maybe once or twice a year.

    I enjoy the taste and the light buzz.

      I find the “I only drink on weekends” to some being seen by others as “he drinks every weekend” quite amusing tbh. Different cultures also drink very differently too which probably influences perceptions.
