The reason why i did it was because drinking helped me make friends. I suck at making friends. But if you're drinking with people,you are suddenly REALLY good friends LOL You can talk to ANYONE. You dont give a crap about your problems. Music is better when you're drunk too! I just got sick of it in the last few years cuz i started to get more interested in music and realized i would rather sit home and play piano or listen to my cd's. That and alcohol is expensive,and makes my heart beat funny LOL But i've had some of the best times of my life while out drunk dancing the night away with friends (and near strangers). Good memories! |
Everyone looks better & is more attractive when you're wearing beer goggles.
But drinking in the long term is destructive, it's horrible for the liver & your heart not to mention your brain. Drinking leads to impaired decision making processes (like drinking & driving and waking up with a stranger the next day).
I'm sure you had fun while you were drunk but if you were really drunk, I'm sure you can't remember half the details of the "best times in your life".
Drinking is ok in moderation but I've seen it hurt alot of people too plus drinking regularly to have a good time sets up a pattern of behavior which teaches you that to have a good time you have to be drinking and when you stop drinking you don't know how to have a good time.
