I drink alcohol every day. Not all day. From lunchtime. I have a couple then do housework or nap or write. Then wait for my partner and we eat and socialize together.
For me it is an enjoyable habit that most would frown upon. The “most” being people who smoke pot, have never worked, are obese due to unrecognized food addiction, who have their own little addictions they wouldn’t admit to. Porn. Sugar. That sort of thing.
I like Gin & Tonic. Nothing else unless out socializing and then I like bourbon. Im in bed for 9. Up at 5. I walk & run daily between 7&14k steps. My homes are clean and tidy. I cook every day delicious food. I am “retired” now at 44 because I did my 25 yrs working full time. I don’t like people enough to work for them anymore. Thanks to inheritence and a business plan for holiday rentals, and having 4 books out, I don’t have to work traditionally. But I’m not lazy or unclean or chaotic.
My partner and I have fun. Are active sexually. I’m not sick. I don’t pee the bed. I don’t fall asleep in odd places or find myself in risk situations. We go places. I’m not some isolated blubbering wreck.
I’m ambitious and will finish renovating this villa and buy 1 or 2 more. I like being busy but on my terms.
People like to judge or imagine drinkers as ugly unhealthy fat losers. That’s not drink. That’s personality.
My personality is busy, happy, outgoing, but I’m also an introvert. Booze doesn’t change me. The only time booze has been an issue is if I’m already deeply stressed and upset about something and the booze makes me impulsive. But maybe a couple times a year?
I’d act out when sober in just same way.
