It's for the best. I've heard of red wine's health benefits too, but you don't need to become an addict. Your liver is grateful.Once I tried to become addicted to red wine...because of course red wine helps everything. However I failed miserably. Falling fast asleep after the 2nd glass didn't help.
Therefore I'll settle for the books I've collected over the years.
Forgive me, I'm English.
LOL! Excellent!
Imagine an Aspie party. We'd all be sat in the cabins, ignoring each other and avoiding eye contact. Which to me...sounds like a very good knees up!
Thanks guys lol. It's ok
I mean't it in a 'tongue and cheek' kind of way.
My silly sense of humour.
Forgive me, I'm English.
Reading, working, and recently tried whiskey to calm my nerves. No hangover.
Oops. No hangover YET(!)
I used to drink in order to "fit in". Ended up with me being drunker and louder than everyone else, therefore standing out like a sore thumb. In other words, it didn't do what I wanted it to at all!!!
Slippery slope there. I'm virtually tea total now (for example, I had one bottle of beer last night for the first time in months. It was nice, almost, but I could have not bothered just as easily! I am not hooked on it at all now, and am glad!)
All I'm hooked on now is sugar, and I want to kick that out too. No need to stimulate my brain at all
I killed one bottle on two evenings without any hangover, so I doubt there will be one in the future.
And nooo ... intention to fit in ever. I enjoy my drinks alone at home.
The intention was to calm my nerves, what has worked to my satisfaction. I have prescription sedatives too but find the side effects quite unpleasant.
As for the sugar, I switched to Stevia a while ago. The first few cups of tea tasted a bit strange, but now I'm used to it.
I have an addiction to self-harm actually. 4 years and counting...
