Why many Americans are rethinking alcohol, according to a new Gallup poll​

WASHINGTON (AP) — Fewer Americans are reporting that they drink alcohol amid a growing belief that even moderate alcohol consumption is a health risk, according to a Gallup poll released Wednesday.

A record high percentage of U.S. adults, 53%, now say moderate drinking is bad for their health, up from 28% in 2015. The uptick in doubt about alcohol’s benefits is largely driven by young adults — the age group that is most likely to believe drinking “one or two drinks a day” can cause health hazards — but older adults are also now increasingly likely to think moderate drinking carries risks.

Addiction Took Me To Rock Bottom. So I Sold Everything I Owned And Moved Abroad For A Simpler Life.​

I awoke with the sun slicing through the blinds, spotlighting the mess I didn’t want to face. My head throbbed. My mouth felt like sandpaper. The stench of stale whiskey clung to my sheets. My stomach turned as I blinked through the haze, heart racing from nightmares I couldn’t remember. I reached for the half-empty bottle on the nightstand, then thought better of it and fumbled for an Adderall instead, my morning ritual.

After that, I lay back down and stared at the ceiling, waiting for the pill to kick in. By late afternoon, I’d take a Xanax to smooth out the crash. By nightfall, I’d start drinking again, chasing sleep I didn’t want so I could wake and continue a life I couldn’t stand.

It couldn’t last.

‘Sobriety is like a second puberty’: Alcoholics on learning to live and enjoy life after drinking​

When Lauren McQuistin was in the grip of alcoholism, sobriety didn’t only seem impossible – it seemed pointless. Sobriety was something for other people to strive for. People who had lost everything and had something to reclaim: a family, a house, a partner, a career. “I was 19, and no one was depending on me,” says Lauren, now 32. “I never had enough to lose in the first place, so I couldn’t see the point of getting sober.”

On paper, Lauren had plenty going for her: she was a gifted opera singer, a graduate of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow, and studying for her Master’s at Yale School of Music. Her future was bright. Inside, though, she was screaming. Growing up “depressed, a little bit weird, and so scared” in the remote town of Stranraer in western Scotland, drinking had been part of her and her friends’ lives since they were 13. But almost as soon as she started, she realised her approach was different. While her mates were getting silly and sloppy, she was aiming for blackout. “People were beginning to distance themselves from me, because the libertine was becoming a liability,” she says.

I'm calling bullschitt.

The younger generation aren't drinking - true. THEY'RE STEWED ON POT.

You maybe think that's better....JUST LOOK AT HOW THEY DRIVE. They can't focus; they can't control their emotions. EVERYTHING is a challenge - just PASS one of these potheads on the freeway, and watch him get Big Feelings. And take it out on you, maybe a brake-check. I've seen these imbeciles brake-checking semis.

I've also seen them wave guns at the supposed offender. One was a signal gun with an orange-painted barrel.

POT MAKES YOU STUPID - and the mediuh, which tells the Woketards what to think, tells the Elites what they want to hear...they're loving it.
 
 

Was It Really The Alcohol That Killed My Old Drinking Buddies? Tough Lessons To Learn About Booze!​

Winston Churchill drank a fifth of whiskey a day.

That's one extreme. The other is an old drinking buddy, who drank about as much as me in my prime...we went our separate ways, him to try to run a small deli-convenience store, me to adventures in the Navv.

When I got out, and found myself a railroad job in my hometown, I didn't look him up. Railroading was my big break - I didn't want to show up half-in-the-bag to a job call. This was the 1990s; Conrail, my employer, was still tied up over the Chevy Chase, Maryland, train wreck. They had gotten hypersensitive.

Anyway, Bob died at 50...no funeral and no reason given on the obit. I only learned of it years later. His wife had divorced him four months earlier.

You drink, you play with fire. Not all with the genetic predisposition for alcoholism, know it. Some people just never drink, for whatever reason. Then the kids find out how much they like it.

Then, the tolerance. I'm fine. Bob's dead. Sir Winston drank daily, heavily, and somehow lasted to age 95.

You just never know, until it's too late.
