I went drinking last night with friends and it was a terrible experience ?. I drank this frothy gunk that didn't really taste nice and I became another person entirely. All my inhibition was gone I was very unnaturally happy the slightest tgings made me smile and I said and did a lot of stupid stuff(some of the things I did are a mystery to me but apparently everyone said I did them, almost an hour of memory missing it terrifies me). And now i feel like I'm underwater many hours after the experience I can't think properly and my body doesn't properly respond to my input it's frustrating.
To sum things up I probably won't be drinking again and yet some people love the feeling, strange creatures they are.

I don't speak from experience but more from a witness' perspective. I believe people love the airheadedness they get from consuming alcohol the same way one might get high from weed. I know one of my uncles who loved to drink. His situation wasn't the best, and he most likely used drinking as a way to cope.

Drinking is a learned pleasure. You will have to do it all over again and again, and the drink will be more tolerable once you built an immunity to the taste. And the temporary happiness is quite worth it if you learn to control yourself.

Yep, I'm a drunkard. With beer belly.

Skill issue.

If you know you'll be drinking a lot, eat something fatty before. Never drink on empty stomach. Coke + vodka/any strong alcohol with make you go down faster. Take longer time between shots, otherwise you'll be wasted after 5min. Learn to say "no". Afterwards drink a lot of water, best if you have a big bottle next to the bed so you can drink whenever you feel thirsty.

The next day, just grab McDonald's - works surprisingly well for hangovers.

The perfect advice. Being an extremely light drinker and having a thing for whiskey and gin, drinking on an empty stomach is the worst thing you can do. A glass of water between every drink or two basically stops any hangover occurring as well.

Alcohol is the best relaxant I've found personally.

Great. It's better if you stay away from alcohol.
But if you can't, eventually you'll get used to it.
Sometimes we need to let ourselves go, and although it's not the solution, it can relieve some stress.
But it's better to live drug-free.

The lost of memories are the worst part, it happen to me before and since then I stopped going over my limit. I prefer having memories of what I do and be able to contain myself than doing shit that I will never remember.

The best way to hold your liquor is...
In your hand.

I prefer to get a beer. Then wave it around. Gesture with it. Tell loud stories then...
Take a tiny sip.

Eventually I lose the beer. Or put it on a railing and knock it over to much hoopla, then demand a fresh beer that I never drink.

I enjoy encouraging others to drink and watching them self-destruct, however.

I get a similar result when I destroy a package of something sweet. It is not about the pleasure, it is just an addiction. Now excuse me as I try to rest up from my sugar crash.

I don't like the taste of alcohol. I drink it occasionally when I have the worst sort of days. And I mean the worst. It's my alternative to becoming a smoker or something similar I guess.

Drinking quiets the gremlins and numbs the pain I feel in the inside by replacing it with a burning feeling in my stomach.

I don't drink for the flavor. I drink hoping it'll kill me only to be disappointed when I wake up the next morning.

I never drank and never will. I have a trauma from one of my gatherings.. it was not something I'd wish anyone. I'd say this to anyone. Just don't drink period.. especially if you have health issues.. I feel like it is not right to make yourself suffer just as an escapism. Heck I actually made a community effort to help those dealing with drinking issues.

It's the vibe that is most important. I don't usually drink because alcohol numb my senses and brings about the brain fog. I don't like the feeling very much. I love being completely sharp at all time, both my mind and my senses.

But every once in a while, drinking with friends or your loved ones is really fun. It's just a let-loose moment, you know. I don't really lose my sense of self, though.

I remember the first time I drank seriously. It was the last night of the year. I was at home drinking with my cousins and little sister. I tried to drink as much as I could so that I got drunk, because I was curious what it felt like. Like I said, I didn't lose my sense of self nor did I become like a new person. It just felt like feeling sleepy. The more I drank, the sleeper I became, my eyes getting heavier, strength leaving my body, etc. And that's it. Felt like hell the next morning, though. Hangover is a bitch.
