The buzz from drinking did make me feel good when I was in my late teens, early 20s. But now at 42 and anytime in around the past 10 years or so, the intoxication just didn't feel good anymore. I always felt worse, more easily irritated, more easily upset or set off by something someone said or done, more queezy in the stomach, and more weighed down or lethargic and not relaxed in a good feeling way. I started wondering why so many people always wanted to drink and why it kept seemingly making them feel so good. I guess one of the answers is that some of them were younger, like how I was saying how alcohol made me feel better way back in the day. But I guess some of it is also that no matter what one's age, drinking effects everyone's body and mind differently.
IIN that every time I go out and drink I bring a guy home with me
