Actual alcoholic here. I’m trying to do a dry January and tonight is the first one I can remember without alcohol. Really hard right now but you guys are correct about drinking everyday—it’s degen as fuck.

It starts off as a “relaxer” after work and ends up being required to relax. Such a slippery slope and no one sees it coming. Furthermore, society laughs and accepts this fact in most social situations, which is really fucking crazy. Same thing with weed now.

To paraphrase: alcohol corrupts the mind; an escape from reality and the challenges it throws at us. Nietzsche strongly saw challenges in life as something to be overcome and as a test for our capabilities, which means consuming alcohol is neglecting your duty to better yourself.

Vodka is cleaner and has less of a toxic impact that whiskey does. It depends on your body and how it breaks down and filters your system.

I drank 3 shots of burban and ate carbs and my lymph nodes were fucking sore the next day for hours until I could flush myself out and get vitamin D and good oils in Mr.

I suggest taking vitamin d3 after a night of boozing, very good anti inflammation benefit, and omega 3 is very good as well.

If you drink, lay off the carbs and sugars. It just makes your liver have to pick and choose more work to be done and the longer the alcohol takes to be fully processed, the more damage it does through the compounds that are toxic needing to be broken down but still just swim idle in you.

Good luck, stay healthy and get yearly liver checkups.

also I would just straight up go to a rehab now that I know. They will wait until you are at 0% and start giving you benzos or there's other stuff too since those are dangerous themselves, but from what I learned it hits the same part of the brain so its like stepping down your amount and then they step you down off that too, and you should be good in a week.

Also usually, there was a group of girls approaching and talking me up to get friendly and then ask me to buy them a drink, but when I didn't, they would get mad and leave. Seems it is a competition among them to see how many boys they can get to buy them a drink.
