      What do you miss? Ill never understand why anyone would want to go back. Sure, it would be nice to have a beer in the shower, but then what? Keep drinking and then be hung over the next day?

        I have been sober for almost 3 years, not a drop. While on a vacation recently, I had one sip of local alcohol drink just to see how it tastes, not thinking that amount would do anything… Boy, my head almost exploded. I was able to not drink more, but damn I did want to. Tasted amazing, felt so, so, so good. Wanted to drink more and go running, dancing, jumping… And I quite like hungovers, miss them really too.

        The hot shower contrasted with the cold carbonation plus the chemical relaxant is an utterly transcendent sensation. And if you start with about 10g metamucil and a zyrtec then before turning in for the night drink a bottle of pedialyte (or 1:1 water:Gatorade) you can drink a mf 12-pack a night if you want and basically never get a hangover that’s not super complicated lol. You start running into other issues like b12 and iron deficiency or gout like waaay down the line but if your goal is just no hangovers that’s actually laughably simple to avoid.
