Alcohol

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 was only able to be in social groups that got pretty snockered - at least when i was a young adult - this due to my asd. yes, asd led me to social drinking...

    anyway, i don't care for being at all drunk now, but enjoy a whiskey with water and ice. about 1 whiskey to 3 or 4 club soda. i love the flavor, the bubbles, and the smell of a good whiskey. if it's a japanese whiskey, a twist of lemon.
