why is drinking so good

completedit

I'm late 20's and there's still nothing better than getting locked. I only drink once every 6 weeks or so but it's unreal, especially over christmas and in the summer.

i heard it described beauifully once.

Drinking allows you to borrow happiness from tomorrow

1. Getting drunk: or

2. Big feed and sex.

The two options for a Friday night, noting that opting for 1. will lead to losing 2.

2. is the winner these days.

Eh not really tbh. Doing drugs doesn't really have the same social aspect that having drinks does.

Spring and autumn aren't without their charms either bub. Trust me, we all know. The 'only once every six weeks or so' perplexes me. She's a cruel mistress, the gargle. You can really only truly appreciate the highs once you've tangled the lows, which kinda nullifies your opening gambit. I wholeheartedly agree with the first sentence mind, I'm a decade older than yourself so you've a good bit of revelry left in you. With all that being said, cheers. It's Powers single barrel for me tonight.

Done quite the bit of drinking in my late teens and all the 20s. Not that fond of it anymore. Haven't had a drink in about 8 months. Don't know if i'm better for it, but I certainly don't miss the hangovers. Plus, my stomach seems to have shrunk so I can't drink anything more than a few pints and I'm busting. Used to have to make myself sick to make room.

Now, much prefer a smoke. No hangovers, no acting the fool, just enjoying me time.

My alcohol consumption steadily decreased once I left college and I barely drink now at all in my mid 30s because I find the depression that accompanies my hangovers *really* hard to deal with AND I’m a complete spa when I’m drunk. Like, really annoying. I just felt it was a bit undignified and something that I could only get away with in my late teens and early to mid twenties. My folks are teatotallers and my extended family aren’t really boozers (many teatotallers and light drinkers) apart from one alcoholic uncle and I think my upbringing has influenced my drinking habits too. We never had drink-soaked family gatherings. It was all tea and coffee and the odd sherry or brandy.

I don’t miss boozing much at all, to be honest. And I love having a clear head all the time. And the fact that I eat much less junk food because of not drinking is a great thing too.

I think you can sum it up with how drink can make a relatively unattractive girl look like Ariana Grande.

Don't over think it.

If you feel like a drink have a drink.

If you don't feel like a drink don't have a drink.

I drink 2 litres of water when I get home after drinking. Dont get hangovers, its horrible force feeding yourself water when you get home and feeling like youre about to burst but its worth it

I know people who do that and they say it prevents hangovers but it clearly doesn’t. They’re still knackered the next day (which is part of a hangover no matter what anyone says), completely listless, blearly-eyed and surrounded by junk food. They’re hungover. Nothing can fully prevent one if you drink a hape.

Drinking moderately, say 3-4 pints once a week or so, is hugely underrated, whereas binge drinking, say 6+ pints in one night is massively overrated, because people usually forget the come down.

I wouldn't agree that there is nothing better than getting locked, a good ride would be better would it not?

no hangover the next day either.

If I dont drink the water I have a pounding headache all day. So the water does stop a hangover. Im tired and bleary eyed the next day regardless because I was out til 4am talking and dancing

Water makes a huge difference, most of the hangover symptoms are down to dehydration. Though it’s best to mix the water with the beer I think, rather than having it at the end.

There comes a tipping point for most where the hangover is just no longer worth it and rather than it being an immediate thing, the frequency of nights out just slowly diminishes to the point where months could go between sessions.

For me I love the first few hours when everyone is in great form, the conversation is good, the drink is talking hold but hasn't got messy..

Once in the messy phase I'm as well off taking myself home

I’m in my 40s. I drank my way through my 20s and 30s. Achieved all my dreams. Maybe you stopped drinking too early.

Headaches are only one part of a hangover. In fact my hangovers never involve headaches. I just feel like shït.

Hangover tiredness is different from normal tiredness and I’m never bleary-eyed after a really late night unless I’ve been drinking.

I don’t know you but anyone I know who says drinking water prevents their hangover - it clearly doesn’t. They are hungover to fück. Very obviously so. Maybe you’re a special case but really I think the only thing that cures a hangover is time.

yeah, hangover tiredness is a different breed of tiredness. The best thing to do to reduce it is to try sober up as much as possible before sleeping. Alcohol messes up your quality of sleep. Better quality sleep = less hangover. Other than that, any next-day tiredness can only be slept off.

Still ,though, one of the worst aspects of a hangover is the dehydration and the headaches and nausea that come with that. So hydrate before sleeping and that reduces the hangover a lot.

The day after a hangover is always great, when you have a brilliant sleep and wake up feeling back to normal again.

The 2-day hangover, though, that's a right b*stard.:eek:
