The problem is, if I do that, I'll be Sad-y McSadderson drinking by myself. I honestly can't decide whether or not it's better to be sober and alone or drunk and alone. What do you think?

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Fri 25 May 2012, 10:42, Reply)

the government recommendations are a shower of shite.
And the only large-scale meta-analysis of alcohol consumption suggests you need to be putting away about 50 units a week before it's statistically more dangerous to your health than being teetotal.

Also remember this is the same group of people who tell pregnant women not to drink at all, even when all available evidence suggests a glass or two of wine a week is quite benificial. Because they freely admit "they don't trust the populace to stop at one or two glasses" .. and think about what they then REALLY mean by "21 units"

so, y'know.

To be fair, they are right not to trust people to be able to follow the advice.
If you tell people not to drink at all, as they have done with pregnant women, most will limit themselves to one or two glasses.

It completely depends what mood you're in.
I love it when I'm happy and get pissed by myself. I end up dancing around my bedroom with music at deafening volumes. Usually in my pants.
When you're in a bad mood it's easier to start drinking on your own than it is when you're happy, obviously, but it's shit. I end up chain smoking on my bed whilst this angst bequeaths itself upon me. Hard to get out of that once it starts and it just gets worse.

If you're not drinking to get away from anything, go for it, it's ace.
