A lot of these guys seem like they have quite serious alcohol addictions.
This is the classic Daily Mail alcohol "gotcha" - completely ignoring that if you're an alcoholic then you'll die 20 years earlier and in severe pain after decades of poor health.

last friday I drank half a bottle of rum, and woke up the next day with no recollection of anything. Upon review with my friends and family, I was able to ascertain that I told my mom goodnight and did absolutely nothing else of note. Pretty good time

I barely ever drink (months between cases), so I don't think I have any sort of tolerance - and I hadn't eaten for seven hours when I started drinking, too.

But really @PillsburyDoughboy haven't drank in 2 and a half months and haven't blacked out in almost four months when @PillsburyDoughboy was drinking on naltrexone. Trans lives matter

Good to hear. I've heard certain medications really frick up your memory when drinking which sounds insane

Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist that's prescribed too alcoholics too reduce cravings. But if you drink while you're on it, it blocks the happy chemicals you usually get from drinking which is the main driver of the addiction. So when @PillsburyDoughboy was on it, @PillsburyDoughboy could drink more like a normal person, catch a nice buzz and then cut myself off. It was pretty cool. @PillsburyDoughboy only had a 30 day prescription though, so when @PillsburyDoughboy ran out @PillsburyDoughboy was trying too use cocaine too regulate @PillsburyDoughboy's alcohol intake then @PillsburyDoughboy got arrested for possession and now @PillsburyDoughboy is not allowed too drink for the next year. But that works for @PillsburyDoughboy too. Trans lives matter

I do think that if you're gonna drink you should go all the way - alcoholic drinks taste awful, why would you ruin your liver sipping from some straggy wine glass over decades and giving yourself a headache instead of ruining your liver by having fun and getting blasted

I WONDER WHY...
(WTF is a 'S.Yorks'?)
And one from the most drunken city in Bongland:
Bongland is a dark, wet, miserable island and the Bongs drink to cope. None of them are happy and all of them want to live somewhere else but Bongs, unlike Spaniards or Germans, have enough self awareness to know they wouldn't fit in abroad and everyone would constantly make fun of them and their stupid accents.

Bongs think they're special if they are able to reel in their alcoholism for a few weeks once a year. They will never miss the chance to talk about the fascinating novelty of not getting pissed.
Some of them will even try to get you to pay them money, for a charity, as though they were running a marathon.

So many people don't realize that when you're a frequent binge drinker then go dry for a period, your body craves sugar because it's so used to getting it constantly as a byproduct of trying to process the alcohol you've been consuming. And if course because they've made no attempt to actually develop self control, they're just on a dry drunk and they end up binge-eating as a replacement for binge drinking.

Apologies for not going into clearer, explicit detail about the elevated blood glucose levels you experience when your body is trying and failing to break down alcohol (which it cannot process), that your body then becomes accustomed to and craves sugary foods in its absence when you stop drinking.
It's a well documented phenomenon in early sobriety for long-term alcoholics

I started doing dry January a few years ago. Last year I rolled it all the way through lent. This year I'm going until May 1st.
I've never noticed better sleep but I generally have sleep problems. It does help with weight and having extra cash though. I combine it with my cut cycle so I can get in decent shape.
That first drink back will frick you up hard if you've been abstaining for months. Ended up passed out on the floor last year.

I just decided to stop drinking one day. I'd always found Dry Jan hard in the past, it makes it seem more difficult than it is.

It's very genetic, not only alcoholism but enjoyment of alcohol altogether. I used to get near blackout drunk and have the worst hangovers due to peer pressure. But then I realized I don't enjoy it at all and even hated the taste. So I stopped.
Anyway, that's all to say for some people yeah it is difficult. Its hard to understand if you dont have the alcohol genes.
