As someone suffering from a few health problems because in my 20s, I took this meme literally...

Don't.

Find an alternative way to relax.

Here for a good time not a long time.

Yeah let me ruin a nice day out by reducing my consciousness of this nice day and fucking my health while I'm at it.

I don't have enough free time to relax without chemical assistance.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Thats bullshit and you know it. I hope you can find the help you need someday though

It's literally not. It takes me a few hours to stop thinking about work shit and everything else I have to do and I don't have that long at the end of the day. I didn't say I drink every day or even every week. I wouldn't even say I have a drinking problem. Most days I just sit around being still stressed out for an hour or so after I get all my shit done and then go to bed. You don't know shit about me so keep your platitudes to yourself.

You’ve got my support.

Likewise

Go for a walk, go on a hike, go fishing, get a BBQ going: don't just drink your day away.

I'm an avid hiker now but I'll never forget my doctor telling me at 24 that if I didn't stop drinking I was going to be dead before 30.

Finally, some advice I can get behind.

Saint Harambe, passing on his wisdom. RIP you fucking legend. This day drink's for you.

This looks like an IRL Far Side comic.

Spoken like a true new-to-alcohol person.

Why wait until you’re not at work?

It is football season. Find a local game and go tailgate! Or golf! Or just sit on the couch and slam beers!

I tried this, and I ended up in jail

Get yourself a heavy glass mug. Lift gains while you drink.

I like to cycle around the lake and stop at the pubs surrounding it.
