    As someone suffering from a few health problems because in my 20s, I took this meme literally…

    Don’t.

    Find an alternative way to relax.

      Yeah let me ruin a nice day out by reducing my consciousness of this nice day and fucking my health while I’m at it.

          It’s literally not. It takes me a few hours to stop thinking about work shit and everything else I have to do and I don’t have that long at the end of the day. I didn’t say I drink every day or even every week. I wouldn’t even say I have a drinking problem. Most days I just sit around being still stressed out for an hour or so after I get all my shit done and then go to bed. You don’t know shit about me so keep your platitudes to yourself.

            Yeah, and mental illness is just people pretending to be sick, right?

            Who said anything about mental illness?

                Could you just explicitly say what you’re trying to say instead of this “wink, wink, nudge, nudge” nonsense?

                Why are there so many people who talk like this on Lemmy?

                Edit: Well this comment is moot now so I’ll make a separate one.

                2nd edit: Actually nevermind I don’t care enough about this lol.

      Likewise

      Go for a walk, go on a hike, go fishing, get a BBQ going: don’t just drink your day away.

      I’m an avid hiker now but I’ll never forget my doctor telling me at 24 that if I didn’t stop drinking I was going to be dead before 30.
