One thing I miss the most

 

[Ed Norton]

Since I really can't drink, would you have one for me sir?

 

[anthony]

Absolutely @Ed Norton and as for driving anything... no, and does one really need a reason for just getting on it once in a while? I am struggling with stress, yes... and it helps me to stop from losing it completely. Not something I used to be able to do... that's for sure... but it does help nowadays when I am controlled, yet my brain wants to jump ship.

I do the same with Dr. Pepper. It's oddly soothing.

My dad used to have a bunch of beers every night, but he stayed up late and sipped and savored them until about 3AM. Then he'd sleep till noon or so and work the second shift. He never got drunk, just mellow. He said, he'd take off about 3 nights per month when he'd see that his hands, when he placed them below his waist, would get redder than normal. This was a sign that he needed to take those 3 days off so that he could protect his liver. He learned that in the Navy. Anyway, I think this was his stress reducer and he was responsible with it, supported our family and was a good father to my sister and me. So have at it, and enjoy!

Ditto! (Although I can see this being a problem if too many members make the same request, LOL)

Well, I will enjoy vicariously! I can drink but even one beer makes my body do terrible things. Stupid hyper sensitive system... If I have one craft beer I am sick the next day.

I agree: in moderation, and on occasion it can help with stress.

Well... it did the trick yesterday, as I feel so much better today. I've felt like shit for a week, trying everything in my book of tricks. Six drinks over many hours, a nights sleep, and my brain feels solid today. Thank god... cause PTSD was starting to really piss me off last week.

I'm happy for you that your stress has decreased. I admire your fortitude, in general. Running this site and all. And I'm not just kissing your behind. I really mean it.

I mentioned in my diary (which I kinda wish I could delete because of regret for things I wrote), that I drink two 1.75 liters of tequila a week. Enough said...
