Alcohol is not a crutch
16 months ago
I would like to limit my drinking to only social situations. And in these situations I will limit my intake and not give into my social anxiety. Lately, I’ve been drinking frequently (~4 nights a week) at home for these reasons:
- Winding down from my highly intense days at work.
- Suppressing my onslaught of thoughts and brain fatigue caused by ADD and said work.
- Socializing (or coping) with my roommate when I just want to be alone.
- Avoiding organizational tasks or suppressing the guilt for not doing these things.
- Occasionally, I’m just bored.
