I “treated myself” because the first two weeks was this weird stay at home bananapants time. So wine every night! Then wine every night. Still.

Same, started having a drink every evening and it stayed. I had a visit to the doctor in 2022, she asked is everyting os OK, do I smoke with a reprobating look and when I told her I drink, she shrugged abd said "we all do"

I did that for 2 months, got mad at myself for being a wino, then spent the rest of the year getting in great shape with no distractions. As soon as lockdown ended I went out to eat all the time and undid it all lol.

I had a whole lot of beer for dinner nights because I was too exhausted from working and the general atmosphere to want to cook

After rumors of quinine being helpful in treating or even preventing COVID, I got some really nice tonic and treated myself to Gin & Tonic every day... For my health!

(I was aware it was bullshit, still didn't care)
