man, covid really did a number on me and I can't stop.
I used to ONLY socially drink unless my dad offered me a beer he no longer has the desire to start anymore or some other outliers, hell I even constantly raided ffxiv/wow and would never drink before a prog night, since covid I started to drink solo to unwind after a long wfh day, it was beers, ciders, wines, homemade cocktails with shit like gin/rum/whisky/vodka/tequila/etc, but even then I feel like during 2021-2022 it wasn't bad and I was actually pretty fit/skinny imo picrel (6ft, 70-ish kg in the pic lol) now I have the desire to make a few simple cocktails most evenings even on work nights and then drink half a bottle every night over the weekend, how the FUCK do I fix this shit man? I drink before concerts, I drink when I'm out in work/friend social interactions, hell I even drink when I'm vacationing with gf.
What's worse my dad is a proper alcoholic and pretty much drinks at least 4 beers every day 95% of the year.
Even worse I somehow managed to get gastritis a few years ago that I can't even cure cuz I eat too much shit food and alcohol.
