I understand the body talking to you but specifically what did the liver say to you ?

If this is something that just came to you in the shower or on the treadmill, my answer would be that it probably doesn't matter at this point after 60 years, so do what you want, but disclaimer: Consult a medical professional and don't take medical advice from strangers on the internet, etc. |

Alcoholics Anonymous - 10 Questions Are You An Alcoholic?
Do you lose time from work due to drinking? Is drinking making your home life unhappy? Is drinking affecting your reputation? Have you felt remorse after drinking? Do you crave a drink at a definite time daily? Do you want a drink the next morning? Do you drink alone? Have you ever had a complete loss of memory as a result of drinking? Is drinking jeopardizing your job or business? Have you ever been to a hospital or institution on account of your drinking? If you have answered YES to three or more of these questions, you have a definite problem with alcohol.

60 Years? Wow, that is some accomplishment. I would say you have great genes and are very lucky to have survived and with "no serious health issues". Also, if you have been drinking for 60 years, you obviously really enjoy it, so I would say pour yourself another. Cheers!

On this topic re drinking. Last night we had a discussion with friends re drinking in TV and they said bars are open until 2 or 3 am. I raised my eyebrows but didn’t want to say You must be wrong! Are they???

Since you haven’t gone without 3-4 drinks per day for so long you really don’t know how your body and mind will feel without alcohol. I would suggest you abstain for a month and see what it’s like. If you feel like you have more energy, sleep better, and think clearer without it than that’s your message. If you feel no difference, then why not continue with your routine? It’s really the only way to get the answer you’re looking for in my opinion.

Depends on how much proof in the drink and how tall the glasses are? Last edited by Topspinmo; 01-18-2024 at 09:38 PM. |

Yes. Maybe not totally quit, but a simple Google search will show multiple medical sources advising consuming less alcohol than this. It affects your sleep /sleep quality, your very vital liver, and lots of other things. Not worth the risks..
