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 like the ‘high’ alcohol gives, but the price is pretty steep for my body. Hangovers hit me hard, and sleep is much worse after ingesting alcohol. Being more drunk is less fun for me, so it’s also a kind of delicate balance.
Since (dry vaping) weed gives a more enjoyable and easily manageable high (shorter, and harder to get too high), similarly priced, without hangovers and with a lot less negative health impacts, I like that a lot more. The ‘cost’ of alcohol just seems much more obvious when having something like weed to compare to.
