Is drinking a wearing experience for you? For me, like for everyone, the way I react to this depends on the type of the drink and my previous state (like if I have eaten anything or not) but it's not a pleasure! I feel like I need to focus more on functioning, I waste more energy. I feel as if someone hit me on the head - that's a perfect explanation of how I cope with alcohol. Does any of you react in this way? Is it a type of hypersensitivity? Do any of you react differently?
Also, I hate how alcohol steals my ability to think, to notice things. I like thinking!
I'll drink one or two units then stop. I don't like how it makes me feel (out of control, unable to process quickly enough).
I did binge drink as a student but I never enjoyed it. I never got that feeling of being less inhibited that NTs talk about.
good
