so the last couple of days i haven't been feeling to good been down in the dumps to be perfectly honest so i decided to go make a pit stop by the liquor store im currently not on meds and i was wondering if bit of the old liquid courage is a good idea right now any thoughts?
Drinking to self medicate is BAD, very bad, and leads to other problems, like police and fines and being band from places and criminal records, trust me I know. It also does not solve anything. The problems are still their, you just are hungover, and maybe made the problems worse.
Drinking on meds, some you definity can not, some you sorta can. My PDoc told me he is realistic, to keep it to 2 in a social setting, no more than once a week. Don't chug them down, get higher end stuff, and savior them the entire time. Like a good glass of wine.
But it seems you made up your mind, but as your profile says, you need to put on big boy pants, and this is one of the things you need to do.
