Consuming alcohol effects your mind in such away that it opens slots that should be closed ๐
Even though most do not think so, there is a common side-effect of alcohol. By consuming alcohol to the rate where you get drunk, your mind is by time changing the pattern of thinking. This means that the more you drink and get drunk, the more is required for you to have fun. Once you are drunk, your mind is open to things that your mind can not accomplish without alcohol. Sure you are having fun when drinking, but each time you get drunk and have fun, it takes you further away from being capable of having fun without drinking.
The mind works in levels. The more often you get drunk, the more you need to drink in order to reach the specific level of happiness.
One that never drinks or never has drinks has an easier time having fun without alcohol than one that is drinking.
I advice you not to let drinking be the best of you ๐
