Sometimes, my gut responds to alcohol by simply saying "No, I won't be having any more of that. You've had too much of it lately."
Small sip of wine and irritation is instant, followed by dehydration. I have to drink water like a camel.
I didn't drink much when I was younger. My coping mechanism then was junk food. I cut off access to that by having gastric bypass surgery.
That worked fine until about 4 years ago. There was a period of extreme stress that I didn't handle too well, and alcohol became a coping mechanism for me at that point, since I couldn't eat junk to feel better anymore.
Controlling feelings has always been an issue for me. It's why I have so often cut myself off from people. Early childhood experiences taught me that humans are nasty creatures that will hurt you.
Normal little boys are loud and noisy things that move fast and subject anyone out of the ordinary to violence and harassment. It probably unnerves them, so they seek to eliminate the threat.
Adults can be a bit like that too, if they've never been exposed to a variety of people from different backgrounds. Life in a remote small town can be brutal like that. It's one of the reasons I don't romanticise the countryside too much, and why I always felt a little depressed whenever I went back there for Christmas.
@AmpBenzScientist I don't understand...

@AmpBenzScientist For a full time permanent position at a school here, some kind of degree is needed. I'd have to finish high school and go to college first. Not sure how you'd get a teaching job with no prior experience in teaching and a 4-year NEET gap in my resume. It's probably a good idea for me to receive job coaching right now in any case. I don't really want to be without a job for another 4-5 years just to get some kind of degree.

"In 2022, privacy researcher Felix Krause found that Meta injects special “keylogging” JavaScript onto the website you’re visiting that allows the company to monitor everything you type and tap on, including passwords. Other apps including TikTok do the same thing."
What the hell?? This is so creepy.
