This study demonstrated that heavy social drinkers, categorized by their persistent and predominant adult pattern of drinking and regular bingeing, exhibited comparable alcohol-induced impairment to that of light social drinkers in such areas as fine motor and dexterity skills (Pegboard) and processing and encoding functions (DSST) following consumption of a moderate-to-heavy dose of alcohol (4-5 standard drink equivalent).
Basically even if you don't "feel" intoxicated, your psychomotor performance will be impacted as much as anyone else. If anything, it's more dangerous, because you're going to be less aware of how intoxicated you are.
This effect is especially noticeable if you see someone drinking on Vivitrol. They don't feel drunk, but they keep drinking and slurring their words, stumbling, etc. The way that alcohol affects the limbic system and creates that sense of euphoria is separate from how it affects your motor coordination, and balance, speech, vision, etc.
DONT DRINK AND DRIVE. And if you do, I pray you end up in prison for DUI rather than manslaughter. Fuck you for even spending all that time and effort writing an essay on how reckless use of a deadly weapon in public spaces is okay if you're an addict. Legal limit should be 0.01. It's a worthless poison that kills people.
Unpop Opinon is always terrible. It's terrible by design. Next.
Yes, very true, relationship advice online is generally awful. Rare chad on 4chan?
Ew. Going on about wrongthink, sounds like someone tried to say something hateful and didn't like being told to shut up.
Ew. Probably went on conservative. Shut up.
"Talks in qualifiers"?? What is this, a fucking grammarly course? Shut the fuck up.
Oh gee I can't talk about a specific language on the meta language board, I can only talk about meta language learning. If only I could go to a sub for the individual fucking language. What, are you complaining that you can't flood the meta sub with one of a thousand "whats good spanish app" posts?? Shut the fuck up.
Yes, hobbyists can be snobs. Not unique to reddit. Although I wonder if again we're mad that someone disagreed with me. Should probably just shut the fuck up.
Grammarly snob Anon doesn't like acronym snob Redditor, okay. This just sounds whiny. You guessed it, shut the fuck up.
And then there's the transphobia, although TBQH I'm a little concerned that Anon hadn't already lost you all before this point, did you just not sniff out the whiny bitchboy bullshit or did you all actually agree with it? Oh well, at least you all can draw the line at transphobia. As far as this complaint, they're upset that they didn't understand someone else's post because there wasn't enough information? Seriously? Shut the fuck up!
Ladydick is great but if it tastes yeasty then maybe see a doctor
Award speech edits are actually the very, very, qualitatively super duper worst thing about redditors, indeed. Never the less, shut the fuck up anon
Yeah this whole rant fell flat, it was just a generic conservative bitchpost. 1/10
if only you read more than three sentences you'd see the problem is with the training data. instead you chose to make sure no one said the R word. ben shapiro would be proud
and the point I'm trying to make is that you're perceiving it as argumentative when it's not. you finding me unpleasant is entirely your business, not mine.
just please be aware of what I'm trying to tell you about the value of demographic differences.
um, I'm not sure why you're off-put by my comment either, i guess instead I'm supposed to i wish you didnt have access to services?
(or i guess i wish your life is so dull and uneventful such that you never need therapy again /j)
either way the only reason I responded was to say sorry i disturbed you. not really sure i mean that any more, that was kind of a dick reply but whatever
i just want to point out the irony of someone going on and on about anti therapy stuff, and then says there's no mental health care around me. if you think it's just a pill mill, maybe you didnt understand where you were going. the vast majority of therapists cant even prescribe rx.
and the complaint you have about how, in your words, "no one ever quotes me directly, they always ruin my words by interpreting me instead of parroting me" get over yourself. you see why they call you argumentative? because you bitch and moan about an interpretation not being perfect. guess what, communication isn't perfect, that's why you compromise and clarify.
Honestly your response to me has been so fucking rude i dont know why I'm wasting five minutes on you. you dont seem to give a shit about what anyone else thinks
thank you for the clarifications, sorry if I disturbed you. getting services in rural areas really sucks too. Hopefully you can find a good online practicioner. therapy needs more national certificates so we can stop leaving red state people in suffering
okay then... I guess you're making this an adversarial thing. I'm not sure what you intended to mean by bringing up shared experiences if you weren't speaking to efficacy. but i guess i get why you made it adversarial: it's frustrating being misunderstood. happens to me too. i just got a comment like that in my inbox just like it. I tried to share insights on how empathy and diversity contributes to positive outcomes in therapy, and i got this bizarre tone deaf debate bro response instead. cant always be understood, i guess. it's fine. if you can't find common ground, you can at least tell people off who are trying to have a pleasant conversation with you, that'll at least ensure fewer and fewer people interact with you
What the fuck is all of this? Are you trying to rationalize your own drunk driving?
You do not understand tolerance. Start here: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2764986
