Week 223 - Alcohol...do you drink it in moderation and to be sociable, simply to get drunk as quickly as possible, or not at all?

The truth is that alcohol does not represent much importance in my life, and of the three options I choose the first one because I feel it is the one I identify with the most. I am one of those who think that alcohol does not control me but on the contrary, because if we let ourselves go, it can have so much control over us to the point of making us lose consciousness and even fall into depression.

I do not know if it is true that by drinking we become more sociable, what is true is that in some countries it is a kind of custom or tradition to drink alcohol at a celebration because without it the celebration would be boring. So if I am one of those who consume it in moderation, until I feel it starts to take effect, then I stop because I am aware of what comes next if I do not control it... and because the effects the next day are very unpleasant.

Normally in my family we drink alcohol in important celebrations like a birthday or New Year's Eve, in those dates we can't miss the beers, rum, wine, and the cream punch at Christmas with the traditional food or during a good karaoke or with a dance floor in front of the house.
