Aspergers and Alcohol

Hawthorn

I have introduced myself recently and given an overview of where I am up to with things, however I also have a different subject that I would like to share...

I am an adult male aged 40, with Aspergers.

I have never been a heavy drinker (mainly due to suffering horrific hangovers) however i have until recently been a very regular light drinker - normal week would be two cans of average lager (4%) most nights.

I have stopped drinking altogether, which has been fine and to be honest apart from the odd exception i do not really miss it at all.

I am however sleeping better, and generally feeling in a better state of mind about my whole life. I have no intention of returning to alcohol, and I would love to hear of any other experiences out there.

  • I rarely drink. Never been a huge fan of it.

    However, I did, relatively, recently stop smoking.

    Now, we're a tiny, insignificant, sample, but it wouldn't surprise me if something about the autistic brain means we find it easy to change our habits when we set our minds to it (but that we have to want to make that change in the first place).
