Just bought box wine the other day cuz I knew I had to have a super uncomfortable conversation that could not be avoided and I needed to be anaesthetized for it
It worked and I know in retrospect I really needed it to be that way
Edit/Update: person I had convo with just texted me and apologized for combativeness and I mutually apologized for not dealing with it sooner and we’re along and on to solution mode. The system works, please dont drink if you dont have too but dont forbid yourself from using a tool to improve your situation and try to always be honest. The less you lie or hide, the less influence you will have to unnecessarily drink
Zero daily, its more episodic in terms of when i need to handle the occasional overwhelming thing like that
When it’s dealing with uncomfortable situations, do you need to binge it, like have more than a few?
That’s a form of binge drinking. Once again, I’m just giving you the information. I’m not trying to make the choice for you. Please just take my words into account. I believe that you’re in control and can make your own decisions with this.
