Oh, fuck....what positives? I don't think I've enjoyed anything to do with it for at least two years now.
That being said, there are certain drinks that I love the taste of like Negronis, for example, or red wines. Some bitter beers as well.
But the high? Fucking useless.
I used to sort of need it after I quit doing meth because there was a period of about two years or so that I suffered from meth-induced social anxiety/agoraphobia and it helped me deal with that, else I would not have been able to handle social situations. But this was all well over a decade ago.
I need to at least start by keeping it to special occasions and not drinking just any time it's a damn Saturday or whatever. Maybe go from there, I don't know. I've taken months long breaks over the years, but always end up going back to the usual binge drinking nonsense when I do touch it again.
