I never had a drinking problem, but quitting alcohol altogether has resulted in nothing but positive outcomes.

It's curious how my friends from college are largely in two groups now (not correlated to intelligence or motivation);

A) not really that interested in alcohol and focussed on work

B) focused on work but drink every night and still "party" all the time

This is seemingly an American phenomenon that's incredibly regressive and also seems to negatively affect women more than men. For whatever reason, women also seem more susceptible to the trap of drinking and partying excessively.
