212 sats \ 6 replies \ @Undisciplined 8 Mar \ on: I can’t live without alcohol. You can? health
I didn't quit drinking to buy bitcoin. I just never became a regular drinker. I don't particularly like alcohol and I'm very put off by how expensive it is.
Why do you find it to be such a big value add?
Red wine, when consumed in moderation, can be beneficial for your health. It contains many antioxidants.
reply
You could say the same for yeasty beers, but either one depends on the rest of your diet. You can get the same nutrients without the alcohol, which may be healthier.

It's true that antioxidants can be found in berries, for example. But at the end of the day, it's up to each individual to decide.
reply
Sure, but it's also better to know if there are healthier options when your goal is health.

I gave some thought to your question.
Bottom line, I like the person I become when I’m intoxicated. Though I have no trouble stating my truths when I’m sober, there is something magical about how alcohol lowers my inhibitions and loosens my lips as the night wears on. When the friends around me are similarly high, we have memorable HTHT (heart-to-heart talks). It’s like people share unreservedly a side of themselves they won’t divulge normally.
Of course, now that my social life is severely compromised, my weekly can of beer is elevated to the status of indulgence. It’s a reward to myself for hanging in there haha.

That's a great answer.
