I don’t drink alcohol anymore because it mixes badly with my medication.
A single, tiny sip of scotch hits me fast. I immediately start feeling depressed and irritable. Even a couple sips of 2% beer has a noticeable effect for half an hour. It’s incredibly unpleasant.
It’s no great loss because I didn’t drink much before. I do miss scotch though.
- Fnoord 3y agoYeah, similar (Fluoxetine, which greatly helps me against irritability), but even before medication I was sensitive to it (though I'd like to think I was best dealing with it around age of 20-25?). I tried dealing with it by taking small sips, but even one glass of beer in an evening is too strong, and moreover: it costs a me a couple of hours of sleep. So the day after, I'm wasted. On Saturday morning I do sports, so I couldn't use that, so it would end up drinking approx once a week on Saturday evening. But it would waste a large part of my Sunday.
