Thorwegian ❄️ (thor@berserker.town)'s status on Wednesday, 11-Jan-2023 00:52:59 JST Thorwegian ❄️ @freemo if i have just a little alcohol, i feel tired and get a mild headache. the typical pattern was that i'd get invited to some party maybe once or twice a year, and i'd get quite drunk, and that would be the end of it. no drinking outside of that. that's how it worked prior to 2020.
some years into it, i tried quitting, and was successful until i decided to celebrate a holiday, and i found that my behaviour had changed, and i'd go out and buy more alcohol while still drunk, and just continue drinking after.

I see no difference between watching a movie or smoking a joint.

Thorwegian ❄️ (thor@berserker.town)'s status on Wednesday, 11-Jan-2023 00:53:08 JST Thorwegian ❄️ i'm not drinking anymore, but all the reasons for doing so are still there, which is why the temptation isn't going away, and it's torture.
