What's annoying about drinking less often is that when I do drink (something like one big night with work people every 6-8 weeks) it absolutely destroys me the next day in a much worse way than my colleagues who drink multiple times a week. So I'm being punished for being a less frequent drinker!

It's funny, because I see it the other way around: I drink less often than I used to, and now I need less alcohol to feel the effects, and I find it cool that way :).

Experiencing this too... I used to get like 225cl of 6% alcohol beer on fridays. Now I've reduced and 75cl gives me the same pleasure and effect. Less money spent, less damage on the body, feeling better in the morning...

There's no way I will stop drinking completely, I like beer too much. But reducing has really no downsides at all.

That's like 6 to 7 cans? Dang boi, you really like beer.

[JodieBenitez]

Not a "boi", but yes, I love it.

Well if you drink from 4pm to 4am, that is only half a small can per hour. Maybe I shouldn't write this, but try 1 or 2 cans per hour ;)

Right? And then you can improve the quality of the alcohol so when you do drink - it's awesome!

I think they just can handle being destroyed better because they are kind of used to feeling a bit miserable. It’s not that it isn’t affecting them.

I remember I was eating very healthfully for a while and then when heading to my job I absolutely needed food quickly and went to McDonalds. I felt pretty crappy a few hours later. The lesson ironically was that I should be eating more mcdonalds because that's the environment I live in and I should be better acclimatized :-)

Hard to establish cause and effect here.

why not drink less in that session?
