When did you realize that alcohol truly is the devil’s nectar, and there’s nothing to be gained from it?

sometimes i just want to forget the loneliness
I didn't. Alcohol is fucking amazing and makes you hot, intelligent and funny. It's just that the bad parts start to get much more noticeable when you're close to 30.
Is there one Muhammadan who is constantly spammed these threads?
when I looked around a saw all the heavy drinkers near me being fat and gross and having bad skin and poor health and mental issues
my greatgrandfather who drank his whole life stood at 400 lbs being just 6 feet tall, he died at age 50 but he was strong as hell according my grandfather
alcohol and smoking will be bad to you of your a fucking genelet, alcohol isnt that bad unless you get drunk everyday, stop being a pussy
alcohol invented civilization pay some respect
After these recent meta-analyses failed to find a net reduction in mortality at any level of drinking. We've known for a long, long time that substantial drinking is bad, but light to moderate drinking has thought to maybe have health effects. WRONG.
Look, a drink a day isn't going to kill you, probably, but it's a bunch of calories and screws up your sleep at usually a pretty significant cash cost. When you consider the risk of becoming addicted and eventually increasing consumption, it seems better to stay away from it in the first place.
Additionally, there are really significant cash savings as well. Avoiding wine with a nice dinner can easily save $30+. That really adds up, desu.
Now I don't think you're a bad person if you ever take a drink. I mean, I sometimes eat a pint of ice cream in a sitting, that's bad for me but I do it very, very rarely. But making it an infrequent thing is likely best for everyone's health and your self.
>makes you hot, intelligent and funny
LOL no.
It just makes you look like a blabbering retard who can't even walk straight...
When I had to go to the hospital for withdrawals. They hooked me up to an IV for a few hours and gave me ativan. Never touched it again.
Its helped me get a couple relationships so I gotta go with the other user here. Alcohol is pretty great. At least in moderation
i was a degenerate fratboy alcoholic in college who did shit in school. started lifting my senior year because my mental health was shit and it helped me cut back on drinking
>get drunk
>hey this person is super hot, intelligent and funny
>wake up the next day, hungover
>NANI????
Seems like a solid foundation to start off any relationship.
Had been drinking every day for five years. It let me hide from my fears and responsibilities. Put my foot down and stopped drinking 29 days ago.
GJ I'm in the same boat as you pretty much. Only craved it when I was withdrawing of course. Once you get over the hump though everything starts feeling a lot better. Have more energy to lift and get shit done.
There is something to gain from it though, a good time. I do agree that other drugs are much better than it though. Try popping a xan or taking some GHB and you'll see how low alcohol really is on the tier list.
based OP
it's a crutch for the weak
Around the time I started getting full blown seizures when I didnt drink.
Once i got used to falling asleep sober it became pretty easy. I have drank a few times since i quit but i feel tons of guilt the next day and upset with myself since i can't function as as well as i want to. If i was the type of person that could drink in moderation i totally would though
When getting drunk stopped being enough to make me even temporarily feel better.
Based and sober pilled.
Take control of your life, and strive for fucking greatness.

when did Jow Forums become so miserable and boring lads?
There's an old joke where a man goes to his doctor and asks:
>doctor how can I live to be 100 years old? and the doctor asks him
>do you drink alcohol?
>no
>do you keep late hours, sleep with loose women, drive aggressively, eat fatty foods?
>no, no, no, no, and no
>well then why do you want to live to be 100?

I love drinking, but I hate how it makes me feel the next day. I train 4x a week now and beer and alcohol just makes me feel weaker the next day. Plus it's expensive and completely empty carbs. Nice to have after a hard day, but hardly a necessity. More of a "i'm gonna celebrate tonight" sort of thing.
wine is a very religious thing to me, but i never drink too much, just a sip a night after prayers. if im trying to get drunk, id get the strongest stuff i can legally purchas in my state (usually 140 proof) and chug alot all at once.
its really not smart to drink whole drinkevery day, alcohol has alot of calories in it and no nutritional value.
makes you *think* you are hot, intelligent and funny. In fact you become a blabbering idiot and end up looking like a retard
Amazing cope.
yeah, so many people ask me why i do drugs and don't get me wrong i like me some booze but its got nothing on some other drugs in terms of both effects and recovery/hangover, also my intake of intoxicants being so varied is the only reason i have never become addicted to anything, the only one i do consistently is weed and i kbow i can stop that when i need to as i regularly take breaks leading up to exams, when i can't afford it and when i have a large tolerance and it isn't as fun anymore

When all the zoomers love how don't even lift but want to kill time between university classes moved in
Except you don't have to get shitfaced to enjoy some of the effects of alcohol lol
Close to a year ago, I've drank once since, felt disgusted with myself, probably never touching it again.
Every time I drink and almost get in a fight for no reason, and wake up feeling like shit.
>probably
Why is Jow Forums so religious?
I drink very infrequently. I used to get shitfaced everyday and I am kind of worried what effects that has had on my body. I had cut down to weekends and was basically just wasting my weekends. Now I almost never drink since I started hitting the gym. Last time was New Years and not planning on drinking until summer. Gunna try and take a vacation and hit up some beach bars idk
That How I got my wife ... and children.

I loved drinking. i didn't drink on a regular basis, but once i started drinking, i never wanted to stop.
Went to a uni with a big drinking culture, and in engineering, so i drank a fuckload in college.
but im done with drinking now. i black out too easily and gives me anxiety and depression for days after i drink. not only that, but it ruins my weekends because i don't feel rested after a night of drinking and my day goes to waste. i'd rather spend my days reading, lifting, watching a good movie, playing music, etc. rather than being a useless sack of shit that binges on food because he's hungover.
I wanted to kill myself, so I relished in drinking.
it made me feel it was great that I could feel something rather than numbness. Paradoxically, the alcohol made me numb, so what was really happening was like I was as conscious of life as one is normally in a dream.
I was certain I was going to die, but I didn't.
Then I was forced to be sober, not because I was in rehab or anything, I just no longer had access to alcohol since I was an hour away for any store and did not have a car.
After that I found that I was conscious, and while at first I hated it. A LOT. I realized life is full of hate. That life is nothing but scorn.
There is no desire to do something, but rather the desire to not do anything. To cease to exist. To lack consciousness, to sleep endlessly without consequences.
As soon as you realize that that is the end goal of life, you must fight it. That is Life's goal, so you have to invent any reason to object to it.
Honestly, I feel a lot better after quitting alcohol.
Good for you, keep that resolution user.
Last year I did the same thing, went for 7 months then though some wouldn't hurt.
I was wrong.
I realize that abstinence is the only real answer.
for those who almost never got drunk, they can have their alcohol, but for those who got drunk. Staying sober is the best option.
I know! after the first few weeks, it is so easy.
but those first few weeks can be incredibly hard.
When I tried to stop last year after I realized my mistake (after 7 months sober) I was shaking something fierce. It was bad.
Easy now though.
Truly, they don't know how much it lowers them
You have to fight death bois! Unironically seize the day. Make life your bitch.
Oh brother! Get a load of this guy!(TM)
When I managed to be sober for 2 months. The mental clarity, motivation and focus gains were unreal. Alcohol truly fucks up every aspect of my life. It brings me nothing but misery.
I don't drink and I don't like drunk people
Spotted the autist incel
This wasted so fucking much of my life jesus.
Not soon enough! But I know better now. Alcohol is a shitty drug. A long list of negatives with no positives. People that think alcohol has any redeeming qualities are coping with their mental issues.
Cope
Good on you man
