People, remember most gorillas don’t know about alcohol. He certainly means drinking water.

It is football season. Find a local game and go tailgate! Or golf! Or just sit on the couch and slam beers!

Get yourself a heavy glass mug. Lift gains while you drink.

I like to cycle around the lake and stop at the pubs surrounding it.

Why wait until you’re not at work?

As someone suffering from a few health problems because in my 20s, I took this meme literally…

Don’t.

Find an alternative way to relax.

lightnsfw ,

I don’t have enough free time to relax without chemical assistance.

Thats bullshit and you know it. I hope you can find the help you need someday though

It’s literally not. It takes me a few hours to stop thinking about work shit and everything else I have to do and I don’t have that long at the end of the day. I didn’t say I drink every day or even every week. I wouldn’t even say I have a drinking problem. Most days I just sit around being still stressed out for an hour or so after I get all my shit done and then go to bed. You don’t know shit about me so keep your platitudes to yourself.

Someone doesn’t need to know you to know how self-medicating anxiety (what you’re describing) with alcohol fucks people up long term

They did manage to be a dick about it, but yea the more someone feels like they can’t stop those thoughts, the deeper the need is for something sustainable (a practice, a hobby, a life change, a med, etc.) that can help them do that

Even at its best, if someone sidesteps all the side effects of alcohol, it still just delays someone from learning how to master those thought patterns in themselves

    Being healthy gives you that time. Alcohol makes you tired the next day, then you come home and drink again because you feel like garbage so on and so forth. You also lose time to the extra sleep your body needs to filter the poison out.

    I’m not about to say that it’s easy. I’ve done a ton of after work drinking in my day. If you’re able, going a week or two without a drink really helps to sharpen the difference when you go back. For me that’s what put it all into perspective.

    lightnsfw ,

    I’m the healthiest person I know and it’s not even close. I don’t have time because I work 9-10 hours a day, then have to exercise, feed myself, clean up, do whatever other shit needs doing, prepare for the next day, and sleep for 7-8 hours. This leaves ~1-1.5 hours to “relax”. That’s not enough time to clear my head let alone actually do something relaxing.

    alignedchaos ,

    The point being discussed is the false idea that alcohol creates relaxation for someone who lacks a setting to be able to relax without it

    It just doesn’t work that way. Top level comment is spitting truth

    lightnsfw ,

    I know how to break out of those thought patterns. The problem is, like I already said, it takes longer to do than I have time for. It’s not like there’s a switch I can flip off.

    I’m going to be fucked long term regardless of what I do anyway because the society we’ve constructed is fucked and built around continuously making everything worse.

    some_guy ,

    You’ve got my support.

    Yeah, and mental illness is just people pretending to be sick, right?

    Who said anything about mental illness?

    Could you just explicitly say what you’re trying to say instead of this “wink, wink, nudge, nudge” nonsense?

    Why are there so many people who talk like this on Lemmy?

    Edit: Well this comment is moot now so I’ll make a separate one.

    2nd edit: Actually nevermind I don’t care enough about this lol.

    Likewise

    Go for a walk, go on a hike, go fishing, get a BBQ going: don’t just drink your day away.

    I’m an avid hiker now but I’ll never forget my doctor telling me at 24 that if I didn’t stop drinking I was going to be dead before 30.
