I know that alcohol weakens HIV medication strength but what happens if I get really wasted just once? Will that take a toll on my body/body’s defense system, also could my body go back to how it is before drinking (this is purely hypothetical but i really just want to feel that again)?
I drink wine daily and i have had no issues with my system. Still undetectable and feel great. Just my opinion.
I have tried to drown my sorrows in alcohol and wash aways any sort of feelings i had ..it doesnt work ...i was going through a rough patch in life ...i was just not happy in the place i was at....i did see a counselor that kind help me put things into perspective....i learned better ways of coping with my feelings and eventually things felt better.....i learned to not use alcohol to mask my feeling but to find the sources of my issues and go from there....i still able.to drink socially.a d have fun....moderation is key and i try not to drink if im upset....i still have my days but im able to deal in a lot healthier ways.....best of luck to you
The question SHOULD be, " what is MY experience with drinking till wasted?"
Maybe I'm cross eyed! He is NOT talking about social drinking, wine with dinner.! He's asking for our blessing, to get WASTED while taking his meds! Sugarcoating a problematic situation, helps NO one! LlOVE him enough to tell him the TRUTH!
I enjoy a good white and / or scotch.. on occasion
Does the brother write as one desiring info for MODERATE drinking? I am in TOTAL agreement re moderation but, am I misguided in seeing a request for justfying getting wasted?
Both of us are seeking to enlighten our brother... not be judgemental.
