I drank alcohol for the first time

[Yimpa]

@Michael569 Thank you for bringing up this point. My best friend’s dad has an alcohol issue, and it makes her afraid when she hangs out with her best friend, since her best friend’s dad also has alcohol issues. 

And so the cycle continues…

I need scientific proof that you drank 25 cl of legit vodka within 1 hour without feeling very drunk, before I can believe you.

I will send you my blood alcohol level  next time, just send me your address.

Unless you're routinely taking GABAergic substances, your report makes no sense. The one time I drank maybe 40 cl of 40% alcohol vodka over the course of 3 hours, I was sent down a set of stairs without knowing it (and I'm a beefy 80kg guy). 25 cl in one hour has to do something.

@Carl-Richard I don't know, that's what happened. I was careful with the first half so I drank it over 5-6 hours with no use. The next day I drank the second half over 1-2 h with no effects. And it was supposedly genuine Russian Vodka.

Why would you buy a russian product and that way give money to the russian state and that way support its war against Ukraine?  Russian products are banned in Sweden. What a weird country you live in which still has russian products.  Be more mindful about who you give your money to. Do you buy Chinese smartphones too?

I was sent down a set of stairs without knowing it as a kid. 

Naturally drunk kid!

You'd be surprised what you're supporting just by existing.

Of course, but I try to minimize it.

No sense in confronting people about their addictive behaviors because they will only resent you for doing so, unless someone seeks out the help they need on their own it's useless to try and convince them

these are people seeking out help, paying for the advice and yet being unable to unwire the habit. Of course, the issue is much deeper, that's beyond the point. I was drawing a picture of the magnitude of this problem. Usually alcohol habit is either coming from an inability to cope with the burden of the day or it is used to temporarily cut off the tentacles of a past childhood trauma that the person isn't able to get rid of otherwise and which are slowly but surely starting to suffocate them.

I understand.
