Some of it is good, some of it is utter rubbish. If you're not drinking the best there's no point imo

Interesting Ttbb

Just got back after a swift one at the pub...deffo good x

Evil stuff. Nothing good ever comes from drinking it!

It is good! Especially as a treat on a Saturday night

I'm neither here nor there on alcohol really. My dad is an alcoholic (not that he'd agree) and so was my step-dad (though it didn't seem to affect him as much) so I've grown up with the effects if drinking to excess. My mum otoh likes a drink but quite happily goes without. She drinks more than I do but isn't reliant upon it. I have just had some delicious port liqueur but that's my first drink in several weeks. I can either take it or leave it.

I'm just a bit worried - I think maybe I use it to block stuff out when I'm stressed or sad. I don't use it that much though.

How much are you drinking op?

Cat look at the 'stuff', it may be more important to sort that x

Not much Purple maybe half a bottle every few months. I can go for ages without drinking, but it's more difficult if I'm a bit down and on my own, if that makes any sense.

Thanks just

2 pints = good
3 pints = bad

At the moment,it's the worst thing ever. My opinion may change once this hangover does one

That doesn't sound like a physically harmful level but if you're not dealing with the emotional stuff, it won't help.

Is there anything you want to talk about?

Long complicated history with alcohol it has touched lots of different aspects of my life but then again I totally get the lovely sociable aspect of it but it can't be that way for me but that's cool. The British beserker attitude to "enjoying" alcohol disturbs me especially when I talk to foreign friends about their perception of us.

Thanks so much Purple I'm getting counselling at the moment for different things, but I guess the main thing at the moment is that maybe I don't feel satisfied and I also don't feel worthy of lots of things.

Makes no difference if it’s the best of the best or a £5 bottle from the Co-Op. if you enjoy it and don’t do it excessively/as an avoidance of your own reality, it’s lovely and there’s nothing wrong with it.

Cat. I’m sorry you don’t feel worthy but you are. We all are. Keep on with your counselling and you’ll see that.

Thank you so much Grilled

love it
