Tiny Complaints

Ugh me too. Went off the pill for the first time in a long time a few months ago and my skin is still not happy about it

I don’t notice a difference either. My theory is that generally the people who talk about it (not the people here!!!) are generally very heavy drinkers, so there’s a more dramatic difference to notice.

It’s interesting because I’ve never been a heavy drinker but gradually started going longer periods of time without alcohol, and then accidentally went even a longer period of time without it. If you had asked me if I noticed a difference in anything, I would have said no, but now even one lightly alcoholic drink will wreck my sleep!
I don’t know if it was a super gradual baseline change, or if I’m just more aware of it now, or what :woman_shrugging:

This is generally what I’ve figured…I’ll have a drink on and off if there’s something in particular that looks good on the menu (mostly ciders or a glass of wine, I like mixed drinks well enough but I’m rarely in places that serve them), but I’m pretty picky on the ‘looks good’ side so weeks with just water/tea/lemonade are pretty normal, and it doesn’t seem to make a difference anywhere.

Nooo! That is so unfair and I’m so sorry.

I drink a lot compared to a lot of people here and when I did dry January my skin didn’t even look any better, much less any of the other (more important) benefits.

I was real mad but it made me feel like wine is my friend, not my enemy

That’s probably true and I am surrounded by WAY heavier drinkers than me, living where I do!

The neighbors across the street are having a party in front of their house. Their music is very loud and epically awful. Lots of repetitive rap music with lots of F bombs and N bombs. Which would be less problematic, I guess, if there weren’t so many young kids at the party.

My groceries got delivered but I didn’t get a text that they were even on the way. I noticed about 45 min later. It’s 99 degrees outside. Then I realized the eggs were smashed as I was bringing them in :frowning_face:
