You drink you die. You smoke you die. You eat shit you die. You live you die too. Less pensions to cough, less elderly homes to build. Less nhs overload… Someone must be happy the way it goes. Not me
Lockdown drinking more like
Also yeah when you take away peoples social interaction, activities outside the house and basically anything that makes you feel happy people are gonna start drinking
> Lower risk drinkers have been defined as those who consume alcohol within the UK guidelines of 14 units a week, while “increasing risk drinkers” consume up to 35 units a week for women, with men drinking up to 50 units.
Counting up the number of units I had this week is one sad affair.
I got worse going into the pandemic, throughout the pandemic and much worse coming out. Leading to last week when my best friend asked if I can remember the last time I was sober. Hit me like a hammer. I genuinely couldn’t. Stopped for a few days but when I do drink it’s often like 3 bottles of wine a night. Well over the guideline, and it might be a few times a week. It’s my own doing, so It’s all on me but it is wild how can it sneak up on you and it takes a disappointed look and fair critique from a friend to face that bitter reality. I much prefer sweet wine to bitter.
I drank loads less than I usually do during lockdown. During the main one I was having 2 x 330 ml bottles of beer a week.
If drinking kills me I can assure you, it’ll be the normal drinking that kills me.
I can only imagine it getting worse with the way things are, living costs up, quality of life down, everything more expensive – people will turn to the drinks as a coping mechanism.
Pandemic drinking has been one of the highlights of Covid for me.
Good thing that the amazing insight on this sub proves we have “no money” to spend after bills, so nobody’s going out and spending loads on alcohol….
OH WAIT.
Pubs are rammed here near London. Fucking 5 quid a pint. 4 or 5 drinks and that’s my weekly food bill some weeks.
Tell me you’re lying about your finances without telling me you’re lying.
Drinking Anglian water will probably cause thousands of extra deaths too. I should invest in a water filter or something.
I reckon I drank less during the pandemic, it was coming out of lockdown when my tolerance had plummeted and I got to see my friends again. Never wanted the night to end, think I’ve levelled out again now
And if we die younger we cost the country less so fuck it lets all get hammered.
Pretty sure that even if you abstain 100% from alcohol, you still die!! 😂
I bet there’s a ton of mental health issues too as a result of lockdowns, but I guess that doesn’t matter as it won’t clog up NHS beds…
One good thing about Covid is my taste buds are weird now and Beer tastes completely grim
It’s like the bitter part has gone
Coke tastes like syrup though it’s very odd
I started drinking because of the pandemic, but then I carried on because you know, life.
Don’t drink, don’t smoke, exercise every day, eat 10 portions of fruit and veg, live in a village instead of a polluted city.
Guess what, you’ll still die
100% of people born die at some point.
It’s all about moderation
Everything causes these excess deaths from now on. The only thing we know for sure it’s not, somehow, is the experimental mRNA vaccines we used. Go have a listen to Dr. Robert Malone on odysee or bitchute. The guy is an advisor to the DoD, is high up in one branch of the NIH, invented most of the underlying tech which eventually led to these mRNA vaccines after a few advancements so he knows his stuff.
*Lockdown drinking!
Bloody hell. We mustn’t utter the word Brexit. We musn’t utter the word lockdown. Yes we bloody need to to actually address the problems!
People in lockdown nothing to do but watch telly and drink. Lockdown finish go back to work and return to the normal drinking pattern.
Why would you continue to drink more and work ?
I really accelerated my aging by heavy drinking from 16 to 29 years of age. We are talking a bottle of spirit a day, plus a few cans normally.
No way I’m living to 90 any more – I can feel the effects already – the grey hair, the early wrinkles, mind not as sharp, etc.
All I’m doing instead is planning to retire at 40 and probably die by the time state pension kicks in.
