Why I Don’t Drink Alcohol Anymore as a 25 yo.
And why you also might want to stop if you care about your life quality.
Here’s an unpopular opinion: drinking alcohol is obsolete.
I’m 25, and I’m Polish, which adds to the controversy of this statement.
But the “sober” trend is rising, and I think everyone should reconsider the “why’s” behind the glass.
Being young, as per definition, I should be out every Friday night, partying and “living my life”.
And instead, I go to sleep at 9 pm to wake up at 5 am, meditate for 1h and exercise before I start working at 8. I also meditate for 1h before going to sleep.
In the eyes of many people I know, I’m boring.
And sometimes I wonder that too.
But then I remember I wouldn’t trade a single day of this “boredom” for living a life that wasn’t mine, pretending to be someone I am not, doing things that leave me empty and burnt out emotionally. Not anymore.
I learned my ways of life, and I protect them seriously.
One of them is not drinking.
