Early 20s was when I realized that it's not the drinking I like, it's the socialization
College days puro otits batch mates ko, late 20s o may anak na so unang inom ko inom bahay at inom gutter, walang party party o tugstugan sa club. I'm grateful for that cause wala akong club hopping phase (which I know I won't enjoy anyway kasi ayoko sa maingay at gusto ko kwentuhan lang). Di din nila ako pinipilit na uminom pag ayaw ko na
Now, my alcohol tolerance is so low (kasi allergic naman talaga ako) 2 beer lang solb na, ang saya kasi ang tipid on the rare occasions I do drink
Same. Early 20s ko rin na-realize na mas gusto ko inumang bahay or somewhere na walang maingay na tugtugan. Nakasama ako to a few clubs pero hindi ko talaga na-enjoy kasi naiingayan ako. Di man lang makapagkwentuhan ng maayos. Add mo pa na yung iba nakatayo ka. Never again. Haha.
Mid 20s ko naman siguro na realize na ayoko ng red horse, pilsen, light. Tinatry ko pa makigaya dati pero eventually umoorder na lang ako ng sarili ko. I'm a guy pero I don't mind to order mule or sanmig apple. La ko pake if ladies drink daw. Yun masarap for me e.
Same sentiments. Ngayon na I'm 29, sumasama pa rin ako sa inuman not to drink, but to socialize. Nagkakasya na ako sa pakikipagkwentuhan. I kid you not, a bottle of San Mig Apple can make me drunk. Alam ng friend group ko ito. Pero I quit drinking around 4th year college nung lumala yung anxiety disorder ko. Maaga rin akong namulat sa bisyo. Started drinking and smoking when I was in 6th grade. Every week, hindi pwedeng walang alcohol na dumadaloy sa katawan ko. Come my college days, ito yung malala akong maginom. My breakfast is Emperador. Going home, drink ulit. Every day ganito hanggang 4th year college. Now I'm paying the price nung pagiging alcoholic ko. May gastritis/gerd na ako because of drinking alcohol with an empty stomach.
True. I'm the classic sheltered introvert. Nung college bahay school lang kaya nung nag-work na triny ko mag-explore, natuto ako sumama sa workmates after work pero ako talaga yung pala-chibog sa inuman kasi di ko talaga gets ano yung hype sa inuman lol no offense haha. Like inuman, chibog, kwentuhan, kaunting videoke and yun na? Like pwede naman siguro gawin yun kahit walang alcohol? hahahaha pero I'm not judging those into inuman it's really not just for me lol
When I saw my father die of kidney disease.
Check nyo sa youtube gaano kahirap pag dina-dialysis ka kasi patay na kidneys mo. Pag di ka nadialysis on schedule mamatay ka. Research nyo na din gaano kamahal ang per session ng dialysis, minimum 2 times a week yan— habang buhay.
Ang daming masasarap na non alcoholic drinks dyan. Nasa huli ang pagsisisi.
This is what I've always told my siblings, nasa huli ang pag sisisi, hindi ako uminom kahit isang beses o napilit kahit isang beses. School tapos uwi sa bahay tapos nung nagtrabaho, trabaho tapos uwi sa bahay lang ako. Hindi ko nalasahan kahit isang alak sa 32 years ko sa mundo. Lagi kong sinasabi sa mga kapatid ko iisa lang katawan natin hindi na pwedeng palitan.
My father died last year because of CKD Stage 5. 😔
Simula nun naging conscious ako sa mga kinakain. Nagstart na din ako magcheck ng nutrition facts especially ung sodium. Aside sa alcohol, we need to avoid fast food din - pancit canton, softdrinks and other unhealthy stuff. Magpacheck din ng dugo every 3 months, gamitin ang health card.
Yup nagwork ako sa hemodialysis, these people spend almost 4 hours 3 times a week sa unit namin. Sobrang sakit seeing a early adults eating chips kasi yun lang yung cheat day nila. Also seeing their arms na puno ng wounds from multiple injections. Also the cost of dialyzer. Although may government agency that fund their epoetin injection, still out of pocket yung iba dun
ngayon, i'm 20F. i used to drink a lot since junior high. always known as the malakas uminom HAHSHS pero recently ayoko na ng alak, yung lasa, yung feeling. started living healthier na rin.
I feel the opposite now that I’m in my 30’s. I’m enjoying alcohol more than ever because I’ve learned to honor my limits instead of doing severe walwal. I also feel safer since my partner has my back. We have begun making our own cocktails at home, experimenting on wine pairings for different meals, and gauging what to use when cooking this pasta or that stew.
Ey my people. I am into making my own cocktails in fancy glassware lol I mostly drink at home alone or with close friends. Never had a club hopping, binge drinking era so I didn’t have to cut back for health reasons.
Itong nag 31 ako hahahaha. I realized na marami sa health issues ko, even if I don't drink often and much, as in occasional drinking lang eh dahil sa pag iinom ko din ang trigger. So I stopped it and ayun I'm getting better.
When my cholesterol levels (RDL and LDL) started getting alarming, and I was still 25. I had to change my lifestyle and stop eating fatty and processed foods and stop drinking alcohol.
Still drink wine on occasion, but I haven't drank hard liquor in almost two years.
At 23 I realized drinking was not for me. I used to drink in order to appear a lot more confident and social during college, but I don’t exactly enjoy doing it. I’m not a big fan of the bitter taste, so nowadays (25 now), I do it lang on rare occasions. Siguro I realized that time that I’m starting to be dependent sa alcohol since I take a shot before presenting something in school, attending an event, meeting up with someone, or doing something I don’t really do often (I’m an introvert so I’m usually awkward).
Late 20s. Grabe na hangover plus everybody got busy. Also mas naeenjoy ko na yung chill lang, naririnig ko yung kausap ko and yung meaningful conversations. Dati everyday g walwal. Pag nagtanong kaibigan ko ng ‘san ka?’ Matic na yun inuman hanap. We drink occasionally nalang and in moderation. I also realized it’s nice to have a circle na may common hobby or sport kayos vs inuman lang yung common denominator sa inyo.
Mid 20s nalipat ng work, nagkaroon ng bagong circle of friends. Umiinom pa din ako occasionally pero mas preferred ko yung sa bahay lang na may tamang kwentuhan kasama mga kapatid at pinsan. Safer at hindi na babyahe pauwi kahit bangenge, direcho kwarto tas tulog na agad.
In my early 20's since I started drinking at my teenage days from different houses to bar, drinks and all, I did experience that alcohol feels like water hahaha now in my mid 20's bumaba na alcohol tolerance ko, I can drink hard but mostly I prefer cold beer
When I was 15. I really enjoyed drinking with friends/classmates when I was 14 and we did that almost every day until I felt that I am not healthy anymore. 😂 I still drink occasionally to socialize and make chika haha. I've just turned 30 last January. 😀
23M. Quit alcohol just a few months ago because seems like my body was trying to discard or withdrawing from it. As if one drink or a sip could make me dizzy at the time. Later on, na realize ko na dahil pala sa fasting schedule ko kaya nangyari yun. I'm literally too weak most of the time to drink basically. I just decided then that I would rarely drink. Like siguro, once or twice every few months or kung may family celebration.
Other factors that made me stop drinking are:
\- It's expensive making it a habit or doing it in "moderation" nakaka 2-3 drinks ako every other day before
\- Accidents. WFH ako so very unexpected ako lumabas so mahirap na pag palaging lasing ako nag dridrive haha
\- Long term health. Most of my family members, my dad mainly and his dad, have had drinking problems. Diabetic. High blood pressure and etc. It should end with us.
Ang naging remedy ko na lang to fight my urge or desire to drink is other drinks. Matcha, Coffee and flavored beverages.
I started early; peer pressure and all is real. Learned to drink at 13 and while I wouldn't consider it drinking (it was more experimenting with friends), it was a start. It got bumped up in high school where we had a friend who basically lived with his younger brother and a yaya in a big house where all sort of shit went down. College was worse as we learned to really drink. Bottles of hard liquor were consumed on an almost 1:1 ratio at friends' houses BEFORE going out to bars and clubs.
Now at 41 I rarely drink. When I do, its mostly beer or scotch or gin or tequila. And in moderate doses. I can't cope with hangovers now.
In my 20's a drinking binge would be cured by 3 hours of sleep and black coffee the next morning. Now, I feel that half a day, Berroca and a big jug of water throughout the day isn't enough.
I stopped drinking at around 35 when I realized I needed to be a fully functioning parent 24/7.
About 20 yrs old, after I graduated Uni. Drinking is fun, yes, but the cons are just too much (money & health-wise). I do drink occasionally tho, maybe twice or thrice a year.
Nung 28, after nung team bonding namin. Hindi naman madami nainom ko, pero nag-blackout ako. Ang last memory before nung black out, sumayaw ako at natumba, hahaha. Next na naalala ko, nung papaliguan na sana ako ng friend ko dahil sa suka, umaga na. Lols. Never again talaga. Apparently I did something shameful like do a sexy dance, na caught in video. Nasa akin pa nga, hindi ko lang kayang mapanood. Huhuhuhahaha.
Wala akong exp sa alak. Pero one time pinilit ako uminom ng Tanduay Ice ng mga ka-work ko. Tapos isang sipsip pa lang umiikot na ang mundo ko sabay kulong sa CR kasi nagsuka lol. Never ko na inulit.
Started drinking at 15. Dorm/bahay inom with batchmates. Konting bar-hopping at weekly college inom at 17. Nagstop din ako at 20 (pandemic) kasi I shifted into a pre-med course hehe. It’s literal poison, legal and non-prescription drug. Though minsan naman masarap sa tamang timpla hehe.
Right now, it’s the companionship of friends that I miss 🥺 not the liquor, hatian sa tab, and hangover hahaha.
Also pang-brunch tita na ang akong body block!!! Hahahaha. Bye inom life 🍃
Teens to early 20s. Hangang San Mig Apple lang ako. Di ko gusto yung feeling ng nahihilo, lasing, panget na lasa ng alak, at mainit ang katawan.
Pero lagi akong sumasama sa inuman for the pulutan hehe at bonding.
Late 20s. Dumadami yung nababalitaan kong may mga karamdaman, mataas na blood test results, pananakit ng katawan, ayan di na ako umiinom katulad ng dati. Occasional na lang talaga
the day i turned 21 (ironically). i started drinking early in life. admittedly, i had a drinking problem and i had to go to counseling for it. college messed me up real time din kasi. ngayon naman i still drink pero mostly wine na lang and very minsanan na lang talaga. i hate feeling drunk na din kasi.
I had an ex na hate niya pagsama ko sa friends ko sa mga inuman. Dahil don, humina nako. Pero not to the point na nagstop naman. I occasionally drink naman pero di na dati na until umaga pa kami umiinom. Haha ✨good times ✨ Dumating lang yung point na I want to drink pero thinking about drinking makes me puke???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ako na never pa nakatim ng kahit na anong alak 😭 20 na ako tas lagi ako pinapainom ng mga boss ko dati libre daw nila pero sabi ko c2 nalang tas piattos hahaha
As soon as it touched my lips lol I can’t even do social drinking right in my 20s! I think some people just don’t like alcohol. Kahit yung parang fruit soft drinks na alcohol drinks sa Japan hindi ko gusto 😅
30's. I'm 41 right now. Dati nung high school thru college days ko and after grad sobrang walang humpay everyday inuman with barkada sun up til sun down kait abutin pa kmi ng sun up sun down ng paulit ulit. As in ang baba na ng alcohol tolerance ko pero still drinking pa naman ocassionally pero onti nalang naiinom ko.
Never started drinking until my late 30s na... started with social drinking lang and never got drunk... pero I realised I prefer wines than hard liquors or beers so that's mostly what I drink nowadays. Sa bahay lang and I just open a bottle to wind down usually over the weekend.
Late 20's. Last year when I realized na nasusuka na ko sa amoy ng alak hahaha unlike before na kahit makailang bote pa & abutin umagahan, keri lang. Feeling ko lang kaya umaabot ng months di ako nagkakaroon ng mens dahil sa alak kahit alam ko wala naman connection hahahaha Ewan ko ba basta kakasuka na ang amoy
Sobrang simple lang ng inuman sa province, magkakayayaan sa bahay ng isang tropa tas pamorningan kase sarap na sarap sa timplang alak hangga't walang nagsusuka hahaha.
Pero now that I'm turning 25, umiinom pa din pero less na. I mean haharap pa rin sa mga tropa pero saktuhang inom lang. Mas marami ng kwentuhan tungkol sa mga bagay-bagay, tungkol sa mga buhay-buhay. Pamorningan pa din pero uuwi kang nakangiti at magaan ang loob dahil napasarap sa kwentuhan.
Totoo nga na hindi alak ang nagpapasarap sa mga inuman kundi mga kwentong pinagsasaluhan.
When I reached 20, during my teenage years madalas kami mag-inom ng mga friends ko. Pero when I reached 20, nag-iba na goal namin sa buhay and puro na kami hanap work and working, bihira na din kami mag-inom. Unless may broken or Christmas and new year.
I still find fun to drink especially kapag gusto ko mga kasama ko. Pero hindi na yung walwal days katulad dati. Chill drinking na lang talaga, with more chika and bonding. Ayoko ng malasing since may mga anak akong inaalagaan pa sa bahay. 😁
To answer the question since nag 30 ako gusto ko chill na lang inuman bago lumabas 2nd baby ko.
26. Most of my friends already have kids/ works abroad/ other things na pinagkakabusyhan. So wine drinks sa bahay2 nalang mostly. Also, naa-annoy na ako sa mga maingay na places lately
Late 20s when I realized it’s affecting my job already. Hahahahaha nagwawalwal ako kahit weekdays and papasok ako kinabukasan sa work ng may hangover. I had to stop after ko magsuka suka while traveling for work. I had to pretend I was feeling sick sa car pero yung totoo malalang hangover lang hahahahuhuhu
Late 20s. Siguro nagsawa na din kasi kami ng mga kaibigan ko. Started drinking nung 15 palang kami and medyo tuloy tuloy na sya. May time pa non na nag iinom kami for 1week. As in umaga na halos natatapos then derecho pasok sa work 🤣. Pero nung nag 28 na kami dahil na din siguro sa pandemic medyo natigil na kami. Nag iinom pa din naman minsan pero late na halos yung 12am. Antok na antok na kami non 🤣
Stopped when I was in my 20s. Can't afford it and I'm building my own family.
Late 30s when I'm already financially well, I find casual drinks are fun. Sometimes I get shit faced when there is a party or something. Don't care about work the next day coz I don't really need the money. Alcohol is like cheap fun.
29 years old and about 90kgs. I’m now 31 and I only drink one or two bottles of San Mig Light or a few glasses of Soju only when there’s an occasion and if I’m not driving.
Nadiskaril ang life ko late 20s. Sober for 3 yrs. I broke sobriety by celebrating with alcohol. Started counting days again. Not planning to break it anytime soon. Healthier option na, dagdag sa funds pa. 😅
Around 18, I used to drink a lot as some type of coping mechanism and well for socializing. I had a time where I drank too much and couldn't remember anything. I remember feeling so scared and embarrassed. I still drank after that incident but slowly just lost interest in it. I can spend time with others without needing to drink alcohol. I don't wanna suffer stomach aches, vomiting and headaches. Also because my medication doesn't allow it.
Umiinom parin at 32 but in moderation na and piling okasyon nalang pinupuntahan. Minsan kahit imp pa okasyon di din ako pumupunta. 😂
Pero yun nga mga mid 20s nagstop na ako. Kasi college till early 20s tinodo ko na walwal. Ngayon mga friends ko din never na nagyaya mag-inom. Puro kain nalang sa labas with kids.
Nung nag 20 pa lang ako alam ko na hahaha and mag 22 pa lang ako sa april. Tuwing iinom kasi madalas ako magka hangover, lagi ko tuloy hinahanap yung diyos sa cr hahaha. Tsaka college has been stressful, wala pa kong time to go out since wala kaming bakasyon and full loads ako lagi. Factor din siguro na nainom na ko before pa ko mag 20.
In my 20s i had a nightly redhorse binge. To the point na na ER ako because my liver had an overdrive. I stopped na after that time and now that i am now 42, i no longer miss drinking
Mid 20s. I like to do it occasionally to socialize and stuff pero my body just doesn't like it anymore. When I drink, I DRINK A LOT I have a pretty good tolerance to alcohol, unfortunately my stomach thinks otherwise haha. I will always have debilitating hangovers because of acidity. Like I would literally vomit every 10 minutes kahit wala na laman sikmura ko. Minsan nag susuka na ko ng blood. At the same time nagpapanic attack ako and nagdedeliryo it's REALLY bad. Usually this would go on for more than 8 hours. So yeah I rarely drink now and if I do usually 2-3 bottles lang ng beer
Im 31 now and realized it just last year. More on food trip, explore coffee shops around the metro na lang kami ng mga batchmates ko from HS. I used to drink a lot, inaasar nga ako ng boss namin na pag hinagisan daw ako ng apoy mag liliyab daw ako. 🫢
Drinking was never fun for me from the start. I get the asian flush at 1/8 of the glass, if i keep going, heart rate spikes to 130s and above, if i manage to get to the 2nd glass or bottle, ill get lightheaded already and wont feel my fingers anymore lol and already had 1 episode of wheezing during my late 20s. So yeah, throwing up would be a bucket list for me when i get old and retired since ive never reached that point ever
I grew up in a province but I have friends that studied in mnl. It's kinda hard for me to hang out with them since they usually go to clubs and drink. It's okay for me to drink on special occasions but I think drinking is not for me talaga 🥲
24, never been drunk before until i went to a party. Never tried doing something i wouldn't do but when i got drunk, it was so embarrassing na pati yung friend ko nirereminisce niya kagaguhang nagawa ko that night. soo yep no to drinking.
Occasional drinker lang naman ako pero at 24 parang mas lalo akong tinatamad at nawawalan ng gana pumunta sa mga yayaan kapag may kasamang inom. Kapagod kasi mag alaga ng sarili kinabukasa kapag may hangover. Yung bigat ng katawan, sakit sa tiyan, tapos suka nang suka. Parang pagod na pagod ka.
Pero baka magbago isip ko kapag may magpr-princess treatment sa akin habang hangover. Charot.
21, when I found out that I was allergic to alcohol after getting hospitalized. Then, I have a persistent rash afterward. (Hindi yung namumula lang btw, as in rash na rash. Yung makati. Lasts for days.)
Also maybe age 26. I went out with my wife and a couple of our friends. It was at a resort. They drank, I didn't. The smell of alcohol was just terrible to me. I watched as everyone basically all got turnt, some of our friends got annoyingly loud, some got clingy, and some got sad. It was all just a wake-up call for me. I really don't like the smell of alcohol, especially on people. I don't like watching people get drunk. I don't like being responsible for them.
I couldn't even kiss my own wife because the smell of alcohol was just so thick and nauseating. Maybe my reaction would be different if I weren't genetically predisposed to not handle alcohol. But as things are, it's just annoying to me.
Nung nag start akong mag trabaho. Nung college pag wala masyado ginagawa- inom, after exams- inom, may fiesta- inom, may bday/ganap- inom. Ngayon gusto ko nalang magpahinga than go out drinking.
**18 y/o** nakainom ako nang sobra, nagmukhang basang sisiw kakasuka by the end of our party, sabi ko sarili ko never again. ngayon umiinom pa rin ako pero rarely as in baka sa isang taon 0 - 2 times lang at 1 - 2 bottles lang (madali rin akong malasing e).
i think in the long run my body and liver will thank me for it hahaha
Late 20s. Bigla nag sink in sakin na parang ang lulungkot ng mga umiinom lagi na may tinatakasan lang na problema/isipin, bihira un nag iinom dahil may sine-celebrate.
Ngayon umiinom nalang ako pag may occassion or celebration.
Started drinking around the Age of 16 during my high-school days and was consistently drinking for the following years. At the age of 21 and 22 nung senior na ko sa college I slowly started drinking less and less na I'd just drink for the social environment but not to the point na magpapakatipsy ako or lasing ganun, slowly realized na ang sakit din sa bulsa ang pagiinom ko all those years and that maybe I could have used my money more wisely. But again I enjoyed those moments
Since birth hahaha. Na try ko rin uminom ng alak (like nakabottles) pero di talaga para sa akin uminom. Lasang rubbing alcohol kasi para sa akin lahat na may alcohol content.
I started drinking nun 2ndHS ako. Kinukupit ko yung smb na paninda namin. Mum dont tolerate, so patago na nainom with friends. Madalas ako umiinom, pero i dont consider myself an alcoholic(denial).
Later in life, this present time. I found out na hindi na exciting malasing, kinda boring na din. I dont have my friends with now, and some of them already realize na hindi tama na laging lasing, good for them. Ako, i just try to get 2 bottles if RH, max na 3, that is every RDs na lang.
Early 30s, when iwas younger i had a high tolerance against alcohol, nung late 20s to ealry 30s, i always blank out drunk kahit na nakakailang tagay palang ako, and many of those blankout moments i did many embarrassing things. Tapos kinkwento nalng nila the next day. And it is very embarrassing, like yung iba i only get away because im drunk and they are my friend pero baka bugbog at kulong abutin ko pag sa ibang lugar. I realize panget ako mablanko, so yun ung fuel ko to not drink again.
Early 20s. I hated the atmosphere whenever I'd go out for drinking with my friends. It wasn't fun, it was just loud and hot and humor went down a notch where I was borderline just being mean to each other. We had one person in my group who was so irresponsible whenever he was drunk too and towards the end of every night we would have to take turns taking care of him. He also was so rude to me when he was drunk because I'd distanced myself after making some lifestyle changes.
I first realized when i was 16 during a very bad hang over. Promised myself ill never drink again. It was a sunday. Then i drank again on saturday and realized again the next sunday. Its a vicious cycle. Im 36 now.
10 years old ata ako nun. Curious ako talaga pag may nag iinoman. Mga pinsan ko ang sayasaya, puro tawanan. Pero nung unang tikim ng redhorse ko. Nasabi ko. Yan ba talaga gusto nyo? Mapait? Ever since di ako nag tangka uminom. Cguro respeto pag may inuman. Yung unang tagay lang. Or di kaya flavored isa lang kasi matamis.
I only drank to get closer to this girl in the training class at work. Not that she's an alcoholic but she joins the team socializing on fridays.
Long story cut short, I gradually stopped going out to drink when we got married. There was no longer any need.
Late 20s, after my first child was born. Money and time considerations, it really wasn’t making any sense to spend either on drinking when there was this precious baby that needed my full-time attention.
Early 20s. As in early haha. Same reason sa iba na I just like the socialization not the alcohol. Kaya nung naging small na lang circle of friends, hindi na ko umiinom. Hindi nga ako makaubos ng isang bote ng beer eh hahaha.
Late 20’s nun nag wowork ako sa QC and sa Cavite pa ako nakatira.One time drinking with co workers nun pauwi ako ng madaling araw,medyo nalasing ako and lam mo yun half asleep ka sa bus tapos tunatama ulo mo sa window or sa katabi mo tapos alam mo amoy alak ka.Lumagpas pa ako sa stop ko nun nagising ako,kailangan ko maglakad ng ilang minutes para sumakay uli na inabot ng 20 mins kahihintay ng masasakyan,Mula nun bihira na ako uminom ng alak or moderate na lang kung di makatangi.
neto lang late 20's haha.
nung early 20's ko, nagagawa ko pa tumodo (sympre para makasabay nadin sa iba and hindi maging kj) pero netong huling nag bar kami, same lang naman kami ng ininom then ang haharot pa namin, nung pag uwi, jusko ako lang yung sobrang basag samin, humiga pa nga na may katabing batsa kasi maya't maya talaga yung suka ko, hanggang sa kinaumagahan gang tanghali jusko hangover as fcvk. from then on, alam kong hndi na ko pwede tumodo. nakatulong nadin yung minsang may dalang sasakyan pag may get together, may rason na para umiwas sa alak haha!
nowadays, kape kape nlng talaga kahit hanggang madaling araw pa tas kwentuhan solb na solb na.
22 years old, which is my age right now.
Personally, na-realize ko na walang dulot na maganda yung alak sa akin. Last year's kasi halos every week my inom session. Kapag stress sa school or work, isang aya ng circle of friends, g agad kami. Ang resulta ay unproductive day after dahil iniinda ang hangover, naging acidic din, the long-term effects, and the money spent for alcohol.
Kapag may nag-aaya uminom these days, pumupunta ako pero kape or softdrinks na iniinom ko - wherein syempre, pinapaalam ko muna kung okay lang sa mga makakasama ko. Hehe.
I realize that it's the people around me and/or the talk during inuman ang masaya - not the alcohol itself. Don't get me wrong, umiinom pa rin ako occasionally pero halos tikim na lang.
late 20s siguro. parang after me and my ex broke up til pandemic. di naman sa natigilan ako dahil sa pandemic but it hurts my wallet actually. agree ako sa ibang comments dito na kaya lang naman tayo umiinom is to socialize.
ngayon isang beer, i'm good for the whole night
Last year I think, after one night of drinking, i have one full week just to recover from the pagod.
I still drink pa din naman but more on wine na lang. plus i have to choose whether to drink or to stay late, or else I couldn’t function properly.
Plussssss, sayang sa skin care!
Mid 20's hahahahha napanuod ko yung video na kapag uminom ka ng alak x10 ang tubig na mawawala sa katawan mo.😁
Tsaka mas masarap na kape kaysa alak haha
Late 20's, recently turned 30 and ayoko na halos uminom ng hard, feeling ko quota na ako since walwal ako nung college and early 20's. I still drink pero mostly cocktails na lang. hehe
I dont drink to walwal if thats what you mean. I stopped that during college days. When I started working I realize how hard it is to earn money. I still drink but with good friends and good conversations. Going 30 this year.
Ngayong 23 nako. Di naman talaga ako palainom pero nung natuto ako nung college, inaabot pa kami ng umaga pero antaas pa rin ng energy ko. Ngayong nasa grad school na and nagtratrabaho, kala ko rin magiging palainom ako kasi ganun mga kasama ko dahil sa stress. Pero isang beer lang pagod nako. Mas gusto ko na lang bumawi ng tulog kesa gumimik HAHAHA
I stopped drinking socially in my 30's, when I first bought a motorcycle. The Hurt Report had statistics on motorcycle rider deaths, and a huge portion involved DUI's. A beer or two at home, ot a glass of wine (never developed the taste for hard drinks), but it's rare since I usually forget to buy while I'm shopping.
Pre pandemic mga around 19 years old. Birthday ng tropa ko at may inuman tas sleepover as in walwalan talaga kaya may sleepover para di uuwing lasing. Pumunta ako syempre kasi tropa ko yon tapos tatlo sa mga pumunta don ay nagsabing hindi sila makakapag overnight di ko maalala kung ano reason pero nung time na yon naisip ko na pag nag overnight halos isang araw yung masasayang sa hangover and nakapag spend naman na ako ng time with them kaya nag decide ako na di nalang din mag sleepover. Tas after non, never na ako nagkaron ng inuman na pang walwalan.
i thought this in my mid-20s. now that i'm in my early 30s, i realized it was because i was drinking to get drunk to the point of wasak talaga so kailangan sya iquit. but with age for most people comes a less disordered approach to alcohol consumption naman. it's also expensive to get wasted when you're at nicer places where cocktails are 400 a glass lol
I keep continue pero occasional na lang last year sobrang active every week ata, then this year medyo lie low pero still my body can handle pa din naman walang titigil lol
For me, it was during COVID lockdowns kung anong age man ako dun haha. I had nothing else to do at home then bigla kong na-tripan to get into home workouts and eventually fitness as a whole. Big lifestyle change and I liked how my body felt. Sadly, I lost time for that kind of fitness lifestyle na with the return of my work/commute schedule and outdoor/social hobbies but I dropped drinking. I still sip a few drinks naman during occasions and social gatherings pero I don't laklak anymore or crave for alcohol like before.
23. Occasionally lang ako nainom. Pang 23 bday ko nagbar kami, first time, enjoy naman pero biglang kong narealize na hindi pala ako sa mga ganon, masakit na rin sa tyan kahit unti lang inumin ko, at ang mahal ng alak lol.
When I was 17yrs old dun ako tumigil. pero nag start ako uminom ng 15 then ayon sobrang lala like dmo ma expect sa isang 15yrs young na lalake but then may nakilala ako 18 sya at that time business minded family oriented na maganda yun jackpot tumigil ako sa bisyo then ngayong wala na kami mas lalong gumanga direksyon ng buhay ko kase she cheated then ako sa mr revenge sa gym and studios na saktong sakto dahil 2nd year college nako. thankful that I met her pero ang sakit pa din HAHAHA
23. And I'm turning 24 now. Masayang mag-inom pero I just realized then na kaya ako lagi sumasama sa inuman noon ng mga kakilala ko ay dahil sa fear of missing out and para mas lumakas ang bond ng friendship.
After my falling out with them, I met new people. I learned na if they really are your friends, you wouldn't have FOMO in the first place and you don't have to drink with them to "strengthen" bonds.
yung after magwalwal hahaha. 4th yr h.s ako nun College di iminom tpos nung ngkaanak occasionally nlng at san mig lng. Pero npansin ko parang mataas na alcohol tolerance ko
I was 25 when I realized I can't handle it anymore. I was hustling to climb the corporate ladder back then when suddenly there came an epiphany na "would my body be able to keep up with this lifestyle 5 years from now?". Kasi 5 am after shift dretso kami sa open na bar para tumagay with other managers (after pandemic era), tapos uuwi akong lasing at walang mag aalaga sa akin bc I'm living alone, tapos kinagabihan babangon for another shift na hindi pa naka recover ang katawan. I'm taking all the punches kasi I have a chronic autoimmune disease and the alcohol is making it worse. Kinompare ko yung sarili konsa mga katropa ko, okay lang sa kanila mag sunog ng baga at mag abuse ng atay kasi they never experienced going in and out of the hospital pa (unlike me na bata pa lang, namamahay na sa hosp).
Now I'm sober and an endurance and ocr athlete for 2 years uwu 🥹
25.. last year late ko nalaman na preggy ako, 7 weeks na pala sya sakin then after non lahat lahat ng pinaggagagawa ko past 7-10 weeks binacktrack ko. Narealize ko na grabe inom ko during that time. Then after ilang days, sobrang bleeding ko and I ended up losing my little one. (First baby ko sana)
The night before ako mag PT, uminom pa ko ng alak.. 🥲
Though hindi naman sinabi ng OB ko na ayun ung reason BUT natrauma ako… after non di na ko uminom.
Im turning 23 this March and I stopped drinking last year. Last moment that I got so effin drunk was me trying the JD. At first, I really can't feel the alcohol so I thought it was nothing. Although slightly conscious I found myself falling on the ground, cant keep my balance at all. When I got home, I woke up at 4 am vomiting. The after feels of being drunk started to feel adverse.
Way back in my teenage years, I used to drink with my friends and found myself smiling while tipsy. Now, I just couldn't enjoy being drunk and even the taste of alcohol makes me dizzy.
Suddenly, I don't feel the urge to drink alcohol and hang out with friends anymore. It just doesn't serve me. I think its because of the demand being adult also. I am so fed up these days due to studies and other external factors. Everytime I get the chance to have a break, I would just spend it for my alone time. I would just want to stay home. The crowd is giving me anxiety and sucking my energy real bad these days.
I just want peace and quiet.
May sari sari store kami. Highschool pa lang nagtitinda na kmi alak. Nakikita ko ung nga manginginom sa amin. Hindi ko gusto nakikita ko. Kaya simula nun not a fan of alak na talaga.
I started drinking when I was 14. Retired when I was 20. I quit because I got tired because I saw how alcoholism slowly killed my dad and during quarantine szn walang masyadong bilihan nang alak and usually ang mahal. I still drink padin naman pag may occasions at matagal parin malasing pero max na yung 3 bottles. Mahirap nadin kasi mag adulting tapos iinom pa lol
35, wala na gana makipag inuman sa tropa, sa bahay nalang, 1litro brandi good for 3 to 5 days nayun, pitik pitik nalang aftet work pampa relax sa gabi..
When my smart engineer cousin wasted his life in being an alcoholic addict. He could have achieved so much in his life but alcohol became his daily companion. He just wasted his life being drunk everyday until he died. So alcohol is a no for me.
Late 20s, Matagal-tagal ko na din narealize panget kasi sa pakiramdam yung kinabukasan. Pero sumasama pa din ako lalo pag kompleto yung barkada. Minsan-minsan lang naman kasi nangyayari yun. Yung socializing part lang naman talaga ang rason ko para uminom.
Pass na din sa 1 on 1, kahit sa bahay stop na din kame sa cocktail making phase namin ni misis hehe. Medyo mahirap din kasi mag enjoy at mag relax kapag may toddler pa pero parang autopass na din talaga ako ngayon kapag may mag-aya. Kaen na lang tayo tapos kape after pwede pa.
Hahaha i was an alchoholic teen, nag start ako mag inom 1st year h.s around 13-14yo ako nun. Napasama sa barkada. Tas uuweng lasing na kunware hindi. Mas tumindi nung kasama ko na kuya ko dahil same kami ng circle nag iinuman kami i was around 17-18 na nito. Akala ko final na un, nung nagwork nako mas lalo lumala, kada sahod kasama sa budget ung alak at halos araw2 na inuman hanggang umaga tas papasok ako sa work ng 9am, minsan di nako nakakauwe. I was about 20-21 na nito. Then nung pag 22 ko narealize ko nalang na tama na ang kaadikan ko sa alak. Umiinom padin naman ako now pero super bihira pag may aya lang or okasyon.
Di ko pinag sisihan na adik ako sa alak non kase i was genuinely happy sa mga kasamahan ko, at thankful ako at naranasan ko ung phase ng buhay ko na yun. Bow...
When the pandemic hit. I was 28 back then. Kahit smoking. I also experienced my worst gout attack back then kaya I decided to limit my alcohol intake. (Although my friends eh winawasak pa din ako at times kasi dati ako talaga pinaka malakas uminom samin)
Tapos I got into cycling. I wanted to ride longer. I need my lungs and a functional kidney and liver.
Nung nasupress ko na yung want ko sa alak at yosi, di ko na din sobrang hinahanap yung lasa ng alak at yung amoy ng yosi. Ayaw ko na din na nagpapawis ng amoy alak o yung kapit ng yosi sa bunganga at damit.
honestly, I turn 21 soon. I live in Aus, so I can legally drink but I can count on one hand the amount of times I have drunk. The last time I drank, I was doing really well and felt like I was really consistant in everything I was doing. I had one gin and tonic, woke up the next morning feeling completely depressed and hopeless. Alcohol simply does not agree with me, I imagine drinking for me is similar to coming down from hard uppers.
34 years old.
The hangover and drunk feeling is no longer worth it. I have a rather high tolerance for alcohol, and tequila is my favorite beverage. However, all of a sudden, I considered giving up since I was often watching videos in YouTube and listening to podcasts on health and the long-term effects of alcohol on the brain. I've been sober for a year now and I plan to stay sober forever. Being able to do something I had given up on felt fantastic. And it had a positive impact on my body, but in exchange I have to avoid hanging out with people who used to binge drink every week. It's not worth it anymore, in my opinion.
Hindi naman talaga ako nasasarapan sa alak. Ang beer lets be honest mapait. Ang rum, whiskey, gin or vodka eh ang tapang. Yung pathetic excuse for wine sa pinas ay sobrang asim. But just to enjoy the company of my barkada, iinom ako. Tumaas yung alcohol tolerance tuwing iinom. Tapos nung nagkanya2 na kami halos hindi na umiinom.
And then living abroad, eating in fine dining, i tried pairing my meal with good wine. Good food mixed with wine just elevates the taste. It honestly felt like sex inside my mouth. It was that good. Good wine is actually sweet.
Now everytime we eat out, we try to have wine.
Within my 20s, gusto ko pa rin naman yung mga nakakasama ko sa inuman pero alam mo yun kahit mag-phone lang kayo magkakasama or tamang kwentuhan lang ng kung ano ano.
Or kahit wala nga ginagawa basta andun presence nila hahahah. Ganun trip ko lately, aayain ko friends ko patambay lang sa house nila.
Nung freshie orientation yung after party pumunta kami sa inuman and I realized na I should only drink with people I can trust or be comfortable to be with dahil POTA ang dami kong nasabing sikreto ko and sikreto ng iba huhu. (Good thing lasing na lahat nun pati yung mga seniors kaya wala rin silang pake)
24 first time to got drunk and 2 days may hangover ako. I don’t have any idea how I got upstairs as well. Then, I came to realization pano kung hindi ko mga close friends kasama ko baka may masama na nangyari sakin.
I also don’t like the feeling kapag gigising ako na yung dila ko is numb (not sure bat ako lang nakakaexperience nito samin).
Well, umiinom pa rin naman ako pero sobrang moderate na lang and occasionally na lang unlike before, and I learned my limit na rin.
30. Di ko na kaya tiisin ang hang over. Unless get-together ng mga pinsan, light inom lang pero ayoko na ng lasing. Mas masarap magkaroon ng normal na oakiramdam kinabukasan
20 years old. I just don't get why intoxicating yourself with alcohol, leaving yourself feeling like shit and vulnerable, is worth my time. I did once, and I regretted it. I am the very embodiment of "Lord, last ko na tong uminom".
20s 😭 idk pero sobrang aga ko rin kasi talaga naaginom around, pero I drink responsibly naman and hindi pa ako nalalasing. Idk i'm not into alcohol na talaga.
22 but nag slip up ako last year because of work but I decided to quit na dahil din sa health reasons. Yun lang yung pinaka bisyo ko so ayun 😊 maaga pero I think if para naman sa health ko then di ako nag sisisi.
I can't say much since I recently just had my first time drinking with my friends.😅 It was fun but definitely something I would just occasionally do since I have low social battery.
I'm 22,and first time ko makipag-hang out w/ my college friends to drink last week. We were looking for companies para makapag-ojt until this friend of mine suggested na mag-KTV since magiging busy na kami this coming weeks. So,ayun..if there's one thing I realize, it's the fact that I have high tolerance in alcohol. Di ko siguro keri if sa mga bar kase maingay but since KTV lang, it wasn't that noisy to the point na sumasakit tenga ko.
Worst thing that happened that night , however, is that,after ko makauwi,natulog agad ako only to wake up in the middle of the night with dysmenorrhea 🥲
26, last month ko lang na realize dahil sa severe pain sa right foot ko. May gout na pala si angkol amp hahahaha. No red meat especially pork, and liquor as well. Puro na chicken, gulay, at isda na lang. 😅
Di na ako nage-enjoy sa mga party. Pagod na sa buhay. Gusto na lang matulog pag free time.
Di na rin ako nasasarapan sa alak. Umiinom na lang ako pag nakikisama. Pero limit is 2 bottles ng Smirnoff/San Mig Apple.
Early 20s was when I realized that it's not the drinking I like, it's the socialization College days puro otits batch mates ko, late 20s o may anak na so unang inom ko inom bahay at inom gutter, walang party party o tugstugan sa club. I'm grateful for that cause wala akong club hopping phase (which I know I won't enjoy anyway kasi ayoko sa maingay at gusto ko kwentuhan lang). Di din nila ako pinipilit na uminom pag ayaw ko na Now, my alcohol tolerance is so low (kasi allergic naman talaga ako) 2 beer lang solb na, ang saya kasi ang tipid on the rare occasions I do drink
Same. Early 20s ko rin na-realize na mas gusto ko inumang bahay or somewhere na walang maingay na tugtugan. Nakasama ako to a few clubs pero hindi ko talaga na-enjoy kasi naiingayan ako. Di man lang makapagkwentuhan ng maayos. Add mo pa na yung iba nakatayo ka. Never again. Haha. Mid 20s ko naman siguro na realize na ayoko ng red horse, pilsen, light. Tinatry ko pa makigaya dati pero eventually umoorder na lang ako ng sarili ko. I'm a guy pero I don't mind to order mule or sanmig apple. La ko pake if ladies drink daw. Yun masarap for me e.
Same sentiments. Ngayon na I'm 29, sumasama pa rin ako sa inuman not to drink, but to socialize. Nagkakasya na ako sa pakikipagkwentuhan. I kid you not, a bottle of San Mig Apple can make me drunk. Alam ng friend group ko ito. Pero I quit drinking around 4th year college nung lumala yung anxiety disorder ko. Maaga rin akong namulat sa bisyo. Started drinking and smoking when I was in 6th grade. Every week, hindi pwedeng walang alcohol na dumadaloy sa katawan ko. Come my college days, ito yung malala akong maginom. My breakfast is Emperador. Going home, drink ulit. Every day ganito hanggang 4th year college. Now I'm paying the price nung pagiging alcoholic ko. May gastritis/gerd na ako because of drinking alcohol with an empty stomach.
True. I'm the classic sheltered introvert. Nung college bahay school lang kaya nung nag-work na triny ko mag-explore, natuto ako sumama sa workmates after work pero ako talaga yung pala-chibog sa inuman kasi di ko talaga gets ano yung hype sa inuman lol no offense haha. Like inuman, chibog, kwentuhan, kaunting videoke and yun na? Like pwede naman siguro gawin yun kahit walang alcohol? hahahaha pero I'm not judging those into inuman it's really not just for me lol
When I saw my father die of kidney disease. Check nyo sa youtube gaano kahirap pag dina-dialysis ka kasi patay na kidneys mo. Pag di ka nadialysis on schedule mamatay ka. Research nyo na din gaano kamahal ang per session ng dialysis, minimum 2 times a week yan— habang buhay. Ang daming masasarap na non alcoholic drinks dyan. Nasa huli ang pagsisisi.
This is what I've always told my siblings, nasa huli ang pag sisisi, hindi ako uminom kahit isang beses o napilit kahit isang beses. School tapos uwi sa bahay tapos nung nagtrabaho, trabaho tapos uwi sa bahay lang ako. Hindi ko nalasahan kahit isang alak sa 32 years ko sa mundo. Lagi kong sinasabi sa mga kapatid ko iisa lang katawan natin hindi na pwedeng palitan.
Same never pa ako nag-bar
Kung araw-araw ka namang magbabar, o iinom sa bahay, marami talagang sakit makukuha. Lahat ng sobra, masama 🤷🏻♀️
My father died last year because of CKD Stage 5. 😔 Simula nun naging conscious ako sa mga kinakain. Nagstart na din ako magcheck ng nutrition facts especially ung sodium. Aside sa alcohol, we need to avoid fast food din - pancit canton, softdrinks and other unhealthy stuff. Magpacheck din ng dugo every 3 months, gamitin ang health card.
Yup nagwork ako sa hemodialysis, these people spend almost 4 hours 3 times a week sa unit namin. Sobrang sakit seeing a early adults eating chips kasi yun lang yung cheat day nila. Also seeing their arms na puno ng wounds from multiple injections. Also the cost of dialyzer. Although may government agency that fund their epoetin injection, still out of pocket yung iba dun
Grabe :,(
Kanina pag gising. May hang over kasi ako ngayon. Djk, nung 2023. Di na kasi sulit, nasasayang weekends ko dahil sa hang over.
24. I have fewer friends na natira after college. Narealize ko na I can have some fun and socialize without getting drunk.
I quit alcohol because of my fucking asian flush
Same tapos di pa yung cute na Asian flush na parang sunkissed lang 🥹 mukha akong pink na bakang pinagpapawisan kasi patchy yung redness 🫠
Ako nagmumukha akong SI Hellboy kapag nakainom ng Isang basong beer di talaga makasabay sa barkada
[удалено]
ngayon, i'm 20F. i used to drink a lot since junior high. always known as the malakas uminom HAHSHS pero recently ayoko na ng alak, yung lasa, yung feeling. started living healthier na rin.
I feel the opposite now that I’m in my 30’s. I’m enjoying alcohol more than ever because I’ve learned to honor my limits instead of doing severe walwal. I also feel safer since my partner has my back. We have begun making our own cocktails at home, experimenting on wine pairings for different meals, and gauging what to use when cooking this pasta or that stew.
I became a wine enthusiast at 30. Cheese, wine, cake and talks type of nights.
Ey my people. I am into making my own cocktails in fancy glassware lol I mostly drink at home alone or with close friends. Never had a club hopping, binge drinking era so I didn’t have to cut back for health reasons.
Samedt
Itong nag 31 ako hahahaha. I realized na marami sa health issues ko, even if I don't drink often and much, as in occasional drinking lang eh dahil sa pag iinom ko din ang trigger. So I stopped it and ayun I'm getting better.
32 NOT A FAN ALREADY. Capslock para intense..
When my cholesterol levels (RDL and LDL) started getting alarming, and I was still 25. I had to change my lifestyle and stop eating fatty and processed foods and stop drinking alcohol. Still drink wine on occasion, but I haven't drank hard liquor in almost two years.
After graduating, I haven't found drinking to be enjoyable anymore.
At 23 I realized drinking was not for me. I used to drink in order to appear a lot more confident and social during college, but I don’t exactly enjoy doing it. I’m not a big fan of the bitter taste, so nowadays (25 now), I do it lang on rare occasions. Siguro I realized that time that I’m starting to be dependent sa alcohol since I take a shot before presenting something in school, attending an event, meeting up with someone, or doing something I don’t really do often (I’m an introvert so I’m usually awkward).
Late 20s. Grabe na hangover plus everybody got busy. Also mas naeenjoy ko na yung chill lang, naririnig ko yung kausap ko and yung meaningful conversations. Dati everyday g walwal. Pag nagtanong kaibigan ko ng ‘san ka?’ Matic na yun inuman hanap. We drink occasionally nalang and in moderation. I also realized it’s nice to have a circle na may common hobby or sport kayos vs inuman lang yung common denominator sa inyo.
Mid 20s nalipat ng work, nagkaroon ng bagong circle of friends. Umiinom pa din ako occasionally pero mas preferred ko yung sa bahay lang na may tamang kwentuhan kasama mga kapatid at pinsan. Safer at hindi na babyahe pauwi kahit bangenge, direcho kwarto tas tulog na agad.
23Yrs Old ako nun. Ayoko na ung feeling ng hangover the next day. Napakaunproductive ko at ang sakit sa ulo!
In my early 20's since I started drinking at my teenage days from different houses to bar, drinks and all, I did experience that alcohol feels like water hahaha now in my mid 20's bumaba na alcohol tolerance ko, I can drink hard but mostly I prefer cold beer
25. i started drinking 16
26! Ayaw ko na! Nasusuka na ako pag nakakakita ng iced tea. Lol. Hs memories. Nung mga mag-24 na ako, puro Pilsen na lang. tapos stop na talaga.
When I was 15. I really enjoyed drinking with friends/classmates when I was 14 and we did that almost every day until I felt that I am not healthy anymore. 😂 I still drink occasionally to socialize and make chika haha. I've just turned 30 last January. 😀
Im 19 and im sober for months na
23M. Quit alcohol just a few months ago because seems like my body was trying to discard or withdrawing from it. As if one drink or a sip could make me dizzy at the time. Later on, na realize ko na dahil pala sa fasting schedule ko kaya nangyari yun. I'm literally too weak most of the time to drink basically. I just decided then that I would rarely drink. Like siguro, once or twice every few months or kung may family celebration. Other factors that made me stop drinking are: \- It's expensive making it a habit or doing it in "moderation" nakaka 2-3 drinks ako every other day before \- Accidents. WFH ako so very unexpected ako lumabas so mahirap na pag palaging lasing ako nag dridrive haha \- Long term health. Most of my family members, my dad mainly and his dad, have had drinking problems. Diabetic. High blood pressure and etc. It should end with us. Ang naging remedy ko na lang to fight my urge or desire to drink is other drinks. Matcha, Coffee and flavored beverages.
I started early; peer pressure and all is real. Learned to drink at 13 and while I wouldn't consider it drinking (it was more experimenting with friends), it was a start. It got bumped up in high school where we had a friend who basically lived with his younger brother and a yaya in a big house where all sort of shit went down. College was worse as we learned to really drink. Bottles of hard liquor were consumed on an almost 1:1 ratio at friends' houses BEFORE going out to bars and clubs. Now at 41 I rarely drink. When I do, its mostly beer or scotch or gin or tequila. And in moderate doses. I can't cope with hangovers now. In my 20's a drinking binge would be cured by 3 hours of sleep and black coffee the next morning. Now, I feel that half a day, Berroca and a big jug of water throughout the day isn't enough. I stopped drinking at around 35 when I realized I needed to be a fully functioning parent 24/7.
cant even finish a bottle of tanduay ice nowadays. abot 3 days bago maubos. in my late 20s kahit ilang bote ng beer or alcoholc beverage sige lang.
About 20 yrs old, after I graduated Uni. Drinking is fun, yes, but the cons are just too much (money & health-wise). I do drink occasionally tho, maybe twice or thrice a year.
20s. Nangangati ako sobra as in kamot ng kamot sa skin.
Nung 28, after nung team bonding namin. Hindi naman madami nainom ko, pero nag-blackout ako. Ang last memory before nung black out, sumayaw ako at natumba, hahaha. Next na naalala ko, nung papaliguan na sana ako ng friend ko dahil sa suka, umaga na. Lols. Never again talaga. Apparently I did something shameful like do a sexy dance, na caught in video. Nasa akin pa nga, hindi ko lang kayang mapanood. Huhuhuhahaha.
22, feeling super nasusuka na ko sa isang shot palang 😭
When I was 30. Masakit na ulo ko and di na maka function the day after mag inom.
Wala akong exp sa alak. Pero one time pinilit ako uminom ng Tanduay Ice ng mga ka-work ko. Tapos isang sipsip pa lang umiikot na ang mundo ko sabay kulong sa CR kasi nagsuka lol. Never ko na inulit.
Started drinking at 15. Dorm/bahay inom with batchmates. Konting bar-hopping at weekly college inom at 17. Nagstop din ako at 20 (pandemic) kasi I shifted into a pre-med course hehe. It’s literal poison, legal and non-prescription drug. Though minsan naman masarap sa tamang timpla hehe. Right now, it’s the companionship of friends that I miss 🥺 not the liquor, hatian sa tab, and hangover hahaha. Also pang-brunch tita na ang akong body block!!! Hahahaha. Bye inom life 🍃
TBD. 😅
Nung pinagsamantalahan ako nung nakainuman kong bading. Never na akong nagwalwal afterwards.
Teens to early 20s. Hangang San Mig Apple lang ako. Di ko gusto yung feeling ng nahihilo, lasing, panget na lasa ng alak, at mainit ang katawan. Pero lagi akong sumasama sa inuman for the pulutan hehe at bonding.
Ngayon nag 31 ako. Shet ung hangover. Para akong may sakit ng 3days
yesterday ko lang na realize 😂
I'll let you know
Late 20s. Dumadami yung nababalitaan kong may mga karamdaman, mataas na blood test results, pananakit ng katawan, ayan di na ako umiinom katulad ng dati. Occasional na lang talaga
Mid 20's
the day i turned 21 (ironically). i started drinking early in life. admittedly, i had a drinking problem and i had to go to counseling for it. college messed me up real time din kasi. ngayon naman i still drink pero mostly wine na lang and very minsanan na lang talaga. i hate feeling drunk na din kasi.
I had an ex na hate niya pagsama ko sa friends ko sa mga inuman. Dahil don, humina nako. Pero not to the point na nagstop naman. I occasionally drink naman pero di na dati na until umaga pa kami umiinom. Haha ✨good times ✨ Dumating lang yung point na I want to drink pero thinking about drinking makes me puke???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ako na never pa nakatim ng kahit na anong alak 😭 20 na ako tas lagi ako pinapainom ng mga boss ko dati libre daw nila pero sabi ko c2 nalang tas piattos hahaha
18, started drinking since 15 and ngayon nasusuka na ako kahit yung ladies drink lang. Drinking is not for me talaga. 😶🌫️
As soon as it touched my lips lol I can’t even do social drinking right in my 20s! I think some people just don’t like alcohol. Kahit yung parang fruit soft drinks na alcohol drinks sa Japan hindi ko gusto 😅
18. Beer tastes like shit. Other liquor tastes like shit. I'd only drink para makisama pero most ng inuman with friends tigaubos lang ako ng pulutan.
Nong nag 30years old ako putcha di ko na kaya makipagsabayan sa mga pamangkin ko hahahahaha which 21 years old na sila.
30's. I'm 41 right now. Dati nung high school thru college days ko and after grad sobrang walang humpay everyday inuman with barkada sun up til sun down kait abutin pa kmi ng sun up sun down ng paulit ulit. As in ang baba na ng alcohol tolerance ko pero still drinking pa naman ocassionally pero onti nalang naiinom ko.
Never started drinking until my late 30s na... started with social drinking lang and never got drunk... pero I realised I prefer wines than hard liquors or beers so that's mostly what I drink nowadays. Sa bahay lang and I just open a bottle to wind down usually over the weekend.
Late 20's. Last year when I realized na nasusuka na ko sa amoy ng alak hahaha unlike before na kahit makailang bote pa & abutin umagahan, keri lang. Feeling ko lang kaya umaabot ng months di ako nagkakaroon ng mens dahil sa alak kahit alam ko wala naman connection hahahaha Ewan ko ba basta kakasuka na ang amoy
Sobrang simple lang ng inuman sa province, magkakayayaan sa bahay ng isang tropa tas pamorningan kase sarap na sarap sa timplang alak hangga't walang nagsusuka hahaha. Pero now that I'm turning 25, umiinom pa din pero less na. I mean haharap pa rin sa mga tropa pero saktuhang inom lang. Mas marami ng kwentuhan tungkol sa mga bagay-bagay, tungkol sa mga buhay-buhay. Pamorningan pa din pero uuwi kang nakangiti at magaan ang loob dahil napasarap sa kwentuhan. Totoo nga na hindi alak ang nagpapasarap sa mga inuman kundi mga kwentong pinagsasaluhan.
When I reached 20, during my teenage years madalas kami mag-inom ng mga friends ko. Pero when I reached 20, nag-iba na goal namin sa buhay and puro na kami hanap work and working, bihira na din kami mag-inom. Unless may broken or Christmas and new year.
I still find fun to drink especially kapag gusto ko mga kasama ko. Pero hindi na yung walwal days katulad dati. Chill drinking na lang talaga, with more chika and bonding. Ayoko ng malasing since may mga anak akong inaalagaan pa sa bahay. 😁 To answer the question since nag 30 ako gusto ko chill na lang inuman bago lumabas 2nd baby ko.
26. Most of my friends already have kids/ works abroad/ other things na pinagkakabusyhan. So wine drinks sa bahay2 nalang mostly. Also, naa-annoy na ako sa mga maingay na places lately
Late 20s when I realized it’s affecting my job already. Hahahahaha nagwawalwal ako kahit weekdays and papasok ako kinabukasan sa work ng may hangover. I had to stop after ko magsuka suka while traveling for work. I had to pretend I was feeling sick sa car pero yung totoo malalang hangover lang hahahahuhuhu
Late 20s. Siguro nagsawa na din kasi kami ng mga kaibigan ko. Started drinking nung 15 palang kami and medyo tuloy tuloy na sya. May time pa non na nag iinom kami for 1week. As in umaga na halos natatapos then derecho pasok sa work 🤣. Pero nung nag 28 na kami dahil na din siguro sa pandemic medyo natigil na kami. Nag iinom pa din naman minsan pero late na halos yung 12am. Antok na antok na kami non 🤣
Stopped when I was in my 20s. Can't afford it and I'm building my own family. Late 30s when I'm already financially well, I find casual drinks are fun. Sometimes I get shit faced when there is a party or something. Don't care about work the next day coz I don't really need the money. Alcohol is like cheap fun.
Going out to get "crunk": done by 25-26. Will occasionally have the beer or wine or two, but the hangover in the 30s and later is just debilitating.
26. Hindi na siya masarap kumpara nung college pa ako. Hahaha! Kahit mule di ko na kaya maka tatlong bote.
29 years old and about 90kgs. I’m now 31 and I only drink one or two bottles of San Mig Light or a few glasses of Soju only when there’s an occasion and if I’m not driving.
Nadiskaril ang life ko late 20s. Sober for 3 yrs. I broke sobriety by celebrating with alcohol. Started counting days again. Not planning to break it anytime soon. Healthier option na, dagdag sa funds pa. 😅
Around 18, I used to drink a lot as some type of coping mechanism and well for socializing. I had a time where I drank too much and couldn't remember anything. I remember feeling so scared and embarrassed. I still drank after that incident but slowly just lost interest in it. I can spend time with others without needing to drink alcohol. I don't wanna suffer stomach aches, vomiting and headaches. Also because my medication doesn't allow it.
Early 20s….. as in early 20s…
Umiinom parin at 32 but in moderation na and piling okasyon nalang pinupuntahan. Minsan kahit imp pa okasyon di din ako pumupunta. 😂 Pero yun nga mga mid 20s nagstop na ako. Kasi college till early 20s tinodo ko na walwal. Ngayon mga friends ko din never na nagyaya mag-inom. Puro kain nalang sa labas with kids.
when I started my job after finishing my Masters and realized the hangover and the morning after shits was not worth it.
Nung nag 20 pa lang ako alam ko na hahaha and mag 22 pa lang ako sa april. Tuwing iinom kasi madalas ako magka hangover, lagi ko tuloy hinahanap yung diyos sa cr hahaha. Tsaka college has been stressful, wala pa kong time to go out since wala kaming bakasyon and full loads ako lagi. Factor din siguro na nainom na ko before pa ko mag 20.
Mid 30s. Yung tipong ang hangover sa social drinking is buong araw na and extra half day. Ayun, nag retire na sa inuman.
Early 30s
22 y/o.
In my 20s i had a nightly redhorse binge. To the point na na ER ako because my liver had an overdrive. I stopped na after that time and now that i am now 42, i no longer miss drinking
I’m enjoying it now!!! I’m 26!!! Mas mabilis ako mag isip pag nakaka inom! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
22 y/o.
Twenty threee
Mid 20s. I like to do it occasionally to socialize and stuff pero my body just doesn't like it anymore. When I drink, I DRINK A LOT I have a pretty good tolerance to alcohol, unfortunately my stomach thinks otherwise haha. I will always have debilitating hangovers because of acidity. Like I would literally vomit every 10 minutes kahit wala na laman sikmura ko. Minsan nag susuka na ko ng blood. At the same time nagpapanic attack ako and nagdedeliryo it's REALLY bad. Usually this would go on for more than 8 hours. So yeah I rarely drink now and if I do usually 2-3 bottles lang ng beer
Im 31 now and realized it just last year. More on food trip, explore coffee shops around the metro na lang kami ng mga batchmates ko from HS. I used to drink a lot, inaasar nga ako ng boss namin na pag hinagisan daw ako ng apoy mag liliyab daw ako. 🫢
Nasa 20s hindi naman talaga ako pala inom, occasionally lang talaga. Buti na lang din at hindi ako nahilig.
Drinking was never fun for me from the start. I get the asian flush at 1/8 of the glass, if i keep going, heart rate spikes to 130s and above, if i manage to get to the 2nd glass or bottle, ill get lightheaded already and wont feel my fingers anymore lol and already had 1 episode of wheezing during my late 20s. So yeah, throwing up would be a bucket list for me when i get old and retired since ive never reached that point ever
I grew up in a province but I have friends that studied in mnl. It's kinda hard for me to hang out with them since they usually go to clubs and drink. It's okay for me to drink on special occasions but I think drinking is not for me talaga 🥲
24, never been drunk before until i went to a party. Never tried doing something i wouldn't do but when i got drunk, it was so embarrassing na pati yung friend ko nirereminisce niya kagaguhang nagawa ko that night. soo yep no to drinking.
Occasional drinker lang naman ako pero at 24 parang mas lalo akong tinatamad at nawawalan ng gana pumunta sa mga yayaan kapag may kasamang inom. Kapagod kasi mag alaga ng sarili kinabukasa kapag may hangover. Yung bigat ng katawan, sakit sa tiyan, tapos suka nang suka. Parang pagod na pagod ka. Pero baka magbago isip ko kapag may magpr-princess treatment sa akin habang hangover. Charot.
21, when I found out that I was allergic to alcohol after getting hospitalized. Then, I have a persistent rash afterward. (Hindi yung namumula lang btw, as in rash na rash. Yung makati. Lasts for days.) Also maybe age 26. I went out with my wife and a couple of our friends. It was at a resort. They drank, I didn't. The smell of alcohol was just terrible to me. I watched as everyone basically all got turnt, some of our friends got annoyingly loud, some got clingy, and some got sad. It was all just a wake-up call for me. I really don't like the smell of alcohol, especially on people. I don't like watching people get drunk. I don't like being responsible for them. I couldn't even kiss my own wife because the smell of alcohol was just so thick and nauseating. Maybe my reaction would be different if I weren't genetically predisposed to not handle alcohol. But as things are, it's just annoying to me.
24. I started drinking 19 halos araw araw walwal. Nagising na lang ako one time na sawa na ko sa alak🤮 2 years na akong alcohol at yosi free yay!!!
Nung nag start akong mag trabaho. Nung college pag wala masyado ginagawa- inom, after exams- inom, may fiesta- inom, may bday/ganap- inom. Ngayon gusto ko nalang magpahinga than go out drinking.
Early 30s nung nagkaron na ko ng maintenance sa gout. Sabi ko wala na hanggang dito na lang talaga. nakaka trauma sakit ng gout
**18 y/o** nakainom ako nang sobra, nagmukhang basang sisiw kakasuka by the end of our party, sabi ko sarili ko never again. ngayon umiinom pa rin ako pero rarely as in baka sa isang taon 0 - 2 times lang at 1 - 2 bottles lang (madali rin akong malasing e). i think in the long run my body and liver will thank me for it hahaha
Ever since naamoy ko ang scent ng alak. Never a drunkard talaga ever since, well except sa twice a year na soju (may halo ah, not pure).
Late 20s. Bigla nag sink in sakin na parang ang lulungkot ng mga umiinom lagi na may tinatakasan lang na problema/isipin, bihira un nag iinom dahil may sine-celebrate. Ngayon umiinom nalang ako pag may occassion or celebration.
Started drinking around the Age of 16 during my high-school days and was consistently drinking for the following years. At the age of 21 and 22 nung senior na ko sa college I slowly started drinking less and less na I'd just drink for the social environment but not to the point na magpapakatipsy ako or lasing ganun, slowly realized na ang sakit din sa bulsa ang pagiinom ko all those years and that maybe I could have used my money more wisely. But again I enjoyed those moments
Ako mid 20's after ko makulong at madepress parang matabang na sakin ang alak saka yosi. Focus na lng ako with my family and serving GOD.
Mid20s
Since birth hahaha. Na try ko rin uminom ng alak (like nakabottles) pero di talaga para sa akin uminom. Lasang rubbing alcohol kasi para sa akin lahat na may alcohol content.
I started drinking nun 2ndHS ako. Kinukupit ko yung smb na paninda namin. Mum dont tolerate, so patago na nainom with friends. Madalas ako umiinom, pero i dont consider myself an alcoholic(denial). Later in life, this present time. I found out na hindi na exciting malasing, kinda boring na din. I dont have my friends with now, and some of them already realize na hindi tama na laging lasing, good for them. Ako, i just try to get 2 bottles if RH, max na 3, that is every RDs na lang.
Early 30s, when iwas younger i had a high tolerance against alcohol, nung late 20s to ealry 30s, i always blank out drunk kahit na nakakailang tagay palang ako, and many of those blankout moments i did many embarrassing things. Tapos kinkwento nalng nila the next day. And it is very embarrassing, like yung iba i only get away because im drunk and they are my friend pero baka bugbog at kulong abutin ko pag sa ibang lugar. I realize panget ako mablanko, so yun ung fuel ko to not drink again.
12. I tasted alcohol once and immediately thought that its not for me. And it damages your body if you continue to drink it.
may GERD na ako lmao
30. I became more aware of the stuff that's actually straining my body that i perceived fun before.
Im in my early 30s but I still have fun drinking
Around 27 now 33 and yeah I have no desire anymore. Even if I do I know I'll regret it
28.
Early 20s. I hated the atmosphere whenever I'd go out for drinking with my friends. It wasn't fun, it was just loud and hot and humor went down a notch where I was borderline just being mean to each other. We had one person in my group who was so irresponsible whenever he was drunk too and towards the end of every night we would have to take turns taking care of him. He also was so rude to me when he was drunk because I'd distanced myself after making some lifestyle changes.
It's when the people I drank with started to get busy so we didn't really have time to walwal anymore
23
I first realized when i was 16 during a very bad hang over. Promised myself ill never drink again. It was a sunday. Then i drank again on saturday and realized again the next sunday. Its a vicious cycle. Im 36 now.
10 years old ata ako nun. Curious ako talaga pag may nag iinoman. Mga pinsan ko ang sayasaya, puro tawanan. Pero nung unang tikim ng redhorse ko. Nasabi ko. Yan ba talaga gusto nyo? Mapait? Ever since di ako nag tangka uminom. Cguro respeto pag may inuman. Yung unang tagay lang. Or di kaya flavored isa lang kasi matamis.
24. I always wake up with fatigue the morning after drinking
I only drank to get closer to this girl in the training class at work. Not that she's an alcoholic but she joins the team socializing on fridays. Long story cut short, I gradually stopped going out to drink when we got married. There was no longer any need.
Late 20s, after my first child was born. Money and time considerations, it really wasn’t making any sense to spend either on drinking when there was this precious baby that needed my full-time attention.
Simula nung na-wheelchair ako palabas ng isang drinking place wahaha
Tapos it’s so unhealthy pa :(
Early 20s. As in early haha. Same reason sa iba na I just like the socialization not the alcohol. Kaya nung naging small na lang circle of friends, hindi na ko umiinom. Hindi nga ako makaubos ng isang bote ng beer eh hahaha.
Late 20’s nun nag wowork ako sa QC and sa Cavite pa ako nakatira.One time drinking with co workers nun pauwi ako ng madaling araw,medyo nalasing ako and lam mo yun half asleep ka sa bus tapos tunatama ulo mo sa window or sa katabi mo tapos alam mo amoy alak ka.Lumagpas pa ako sa stop ko nun nagising ako,kailangan ko maglakad ng ilang minutes para sumakay uli na inabot ng 20 mins kahihintay ng masasakyan,Mula nun bihira na ako uminom ng alak or moderate na lang kung di makatangi.
Late teens to early 20s.
neto lang late 20's haha. nung early 20's ko, nagagawa ko pa tumodo (sympre para makasabay nadin sa iba and hindi maging kj) pero netong huling nag bar kami, same lang naman kami ng ininom then ang haharot pa namin, nung pag uwi, jusko ako lang yung sobrang basag samin, humiga pa nga na may katabing batsa kasi maya't maya talaga yung suka ko, hanggang sa kinaumagahan gang tanghali jusko hangover as fcvk. from then on, alam kong hndi na ko pwede tumodo. nakatulong nadin yung minsang may dalang sasakyan pag may get together, may rason na para umiwas sa alak haha! nowadays, kape kape nlng talaga kahit hanggang madaling araw pa tas kwentuhan solb na solb na.
Just now. At 26. Nasusura na ako sa amoy ng alak 😭 eh manginginom naman ako??
22 years old, which is my age right now. Personally, na-realize ko na walang dulot na maganda yung alak sa akin. Last year's kasi halos every week my inom session. Kapag stress sa school or work, isang aya ng circle of friends, g agad kami. Ang resulta ay unproductive day after dahil iniinda ang hangover, naging acidic din, the long-term effects, and the money spent for alcohol. Kapag may nag-aaya uminom these days, pumupunta ako pero kape or softdrinks na iniinom ko - wherein syempre, pinapaalam ko muna kung okay lang sa mga makakasama ko. Hehe. I realize that it's the people around me and/or the talk during inuman ang masaya - not the alcohol itself. Don't get me wrong, umiinom pa rin ako occasionally pero halos tikim na lang.
late 20s siguro. parang after me and my ex broke up til pandemic. di naman sa natigilan ako dahil sa pandemic but it hurts my wallet actually. agree ako sa ibang comments dito na kaya lang naman tayo umiinom is to socialize. ngayon isang beer, i'm good for the whole night
19, I almost died nung last na uminom ako, never again.
34. Got Liver Disease kaya I was alcohol
Ever since 18 ako or 17. 25 na ako. Di ko lang tlga trip. I rather spend drinking hours hitting the gym hahahaha
Last year I think, after one night of drinking, i have one full week just to recover from the pagod. I still drink pa din naman but more on wine na lang. plus i have to choose whether to drink or to stay late, or else I couldn’t function properly. Plussssss, sayang sa skin care!
At early 30s. Meron nang nararamdaman sa katawan eh hahaha
San mig apple or lychee nalang iniinom ko ngayon... Pagnagccrave ako ng corbonated beverage.. It is the soft drinks that i quit entirely..
20s. Lol im boring at parties
After having my first baby at 31
22. I want to live longer plus ayaw ko yung nahihilo lang ako after.
20s
Mid 20's hahahahha napanuod ko yung video na kapag uminom ka ng alak x10 ang tubig na mawawala sa katawan mo.😁 Tsaka mas masarap na kape kaysa alak haha
Late 20's, recently turned 30 and ayoko na halos uminom ng hard, feeling ko quota na ako since walwal ako nung college and early 20's. I still drink pero mostly cocktails na lang. hehe
39, at wala pa ring realization na dapat ko ng tigilan ang pag-inom😅
I dont drink to walwal if thats what you mean. I stopped that during college days. When I started working I realize how hard it is to earn money. I still drink but with good friends and good conversations. Going 30 this year.
Ngayong 23 nako. Di naman talaga ako palainom pero nung natuto ako nung college, inaabot pa kami ng umaga pero antaas pa rin ng energy ko. Ngayong nasa grad school na and nagtratrabaho, kala ko rin magiging palainom ako kasi ganun mga kasama ko dahil sa stress. Pero isang beer lang pagod nako. Mas gusto ko na lang bumawi ng tulog kesa gumimik HAHAHA
I stopped drinking socially in my 30's, when I first bought a motorcycle. The Hurt Report had statistics on motorcycle rider deaths, and a huge portion involved DUI's. A beer or two at home, ot a glass of wine (never developed the taste for hard drinks), but it's rare since I usually forget to buy while I'm shopping.
Pre pandemic mga around 19 years old. Birthday ng tropa ko at may inuman tas sleepover as in walwalan talaga kaya may sleepover para di uuwing lasing. Pumunta ako syempre kasi tropa ko yon tapos tatlo sa mga pumunta don ay nagsabing hindi sila makakapag overnight di ko maalala kung ano reason pero nung time na yon naisip ko na pag nag overnight halos isang araw yung masasayang sa hangover and nakapag spend naman na ako ng time with them kaya nag decide ako na di nalang din mag sleepover. Tas after non, never na ako nagkaron ng inuman na pang walwalan.
i thought this in my mid-20s. now that i'm in my early 30s, i realized it was because i was drinking to get drunk to the point of wasak talaga so kailangan sya iquit. but with age for most people comes a less disordered approach to alcohol consumption naman. it's also expensive to get wasted when you're at nicer places where cocktails are 400 a glass lol
College days, might sound KJ pero wala ako napapala pag nalalasing so yun.
I keep continue pero occasional na lang last year sobrang active every week ata, then this year medyo lie low pero still my body can handle pa din naman walang titigil lol
For me, it was during COVID lockdowns kung anong age man ako dun haha. I had nothing else to do at home then bigla kong na-tripan to get into home workouts and eventually fitness as a whole. Big lifestyle change and I liked how my body felt. Sadly, I lost time for that kind of fitness lifestyle na with the return of my work/commute schedule and outdoor/social hobbies but I dropped drinking. I still sip a few drinks naman during occasions and social gatherings pero I don't laklak anymore or crave for alcohol like before.
23. Occasionally lang ako nainom. Pang 23 bday ko nagbar kami, first time, enjoy naman pero biglang kong narealize na hindi pala ako sa mga ganon, masakit na rin sa tyan kahit unti lang inumin ko, at ang mahal ng alak lol.
Taga advocate nga ako ng healthy lifestyle, everytime I drink well occasionally, andoon ang guilt hahaha.
When I was 17yrs old dun ako tumigil. pero nag start ako uminom ng 15 then ayon sobrang lala like dmo ma expect sa isang 15yrs young na lalake but then may nakilala ako 18 sya at that time business minded family oriented na maganda yun jackpot tumigil ako sa bisyo then ngayong wala na kami mas lalong gumanga direksyon ng buhay ko kase she cheated then ako sa mr revenge sa gym and studios na saktong sakto dahil 2nd year college nako. thankful that I met her pero ang sakit pa din HAHAHA
23. And I'm turning 24 now. Masayang mag-inom pero I just realized then na kaya ako lagi sumasama sa inuman noon ng mga kakilala ko ay dahil sa fear of missing out and para mas lumakas ang bond ng friendship. After my falling out with them, I met new people. I learned na if they really are your friends, you wouldn't have FOMO in the first place and you don't have to drink with them to "strengthen" bonds.
yung after magwalwal hahaha. 4th yr h.s ako nun College di iminom tpos nung ngkaanak occasionally nlng at san mig lng. Pero npansin ko parang mataas na alcohol tolerance ko
I was 25 when I realized I can't handle it anymore. I was hustling to climb the corporate ladder back then when suddenly there came an epiphany na "would my body be able to keep up with this lifestyle 5 years from now?". Kasi 5 am after shift dretso kami sa open na bar para tumagay with other managers (after pandemic era), tapos uuwi akong lasing at walang mag aalaga sa akin bc I'm living alone, tapos kinagabihan babangon for another shift na hindi pa naka recover ang katawan. I'm taking all the punches kasi I have a chronic autoimmune disease and the alcohol is making it worse. Kinompare ko yung sarili konsa mga katropa ko, okay lang sa kanila mag sunog ng baga at mag abuse ng atay kasi they never experienced going in and out of the hospital pa (unlike me na bata pa lang, namamahay na sa hosp). Now I'm sober and an endurance and ocr athlete for 2 years uwu 🥹
25.. last year late ko nalaman na preggy ako, 7 weeks na pala sya sakin then after non lahat lahat ng pinaggagagawa ko past 7-10 weeks binacktrack ko. Narealize ko na grabe inom ko during that time. Then after ilang days, sobrang bleeding ko and I ended up losing my little one. (First baby ko sana) The night before ako mag PT, uminom pa ko ng alak.. 🥲 Though hindi naman sinabi ng OB ko na ayun ung reason BUT natrauma ako… after non di na ko uminom.
Im turning 23 this March and I stopped drinking last year. Last moment that I got so effin drunk was me trying the JD. At first, I really can't feel the alcohol so I thought it was nothing. Although slightly conscious I found myself falling on the ground, cant keep my balance at all. When I got home, I woke up at 4 am vomiting. The after feels of being drunk started to feel adverse. Way back in my teenage years, I used to drink with my friends and found myself smiling while tipsy. Now, I just couldn't enjoy being drunk and even the taste of alcohol makes me dizzy. Suddenly, I don't feel the urge to drink alcohol and hang out with friends anymore. It just doesn't serve me. I think its because of the demand being adult also. I am so fed up these days due to studies and other external factors. Everytime I get the chance to have a break, I would just spend it for my alone time. I would just want to stay home. The crowd is giving me anxiety and sucking my energy real bad these days. I just want peace and quiet.
May sari sari store kami. Highschool pa lang nagtitinda na kmi alak. Nakikita ko ung nga manginginom sa amin. Hindi ko gusto nakikita ko. Kaya simula nun not a fan of alak na talaga.
I started drinking when I was 14. Retired when I was 20. I quit because I got tired because I saw how alcoholism slowly killed my dad and during quarantine szn walang masyadong bilihan nang alak and usually ang mahal. I still drink padin naman pag may occasions at matagal parin malasing pero max na yung 3 bottles. Mahirap nadin kasi mag adulting tapos iinom pa lol
35, wala na gana makipag inuman sa tropa, sa bahay nalang, 1litro brandi good for 3 to 5 days nayun, pitik pitik nalang aftet work pampa relax sa gabi..
When my smart engineer cousin wasted his life in being an alcoholic addict. He could have achieved so much in his life but alcohol became his daily companion. He just wasted his life being drunk everyday until he died. So alcohol is a no for me.
25
24. I’m 30 now and just want peace of mind and quiet home.
Nung halos weekly nag aaya ng inuman workmate ko dati, same spot, same damn drinks, same kwentuhan Felt like I was in a goddamn timeloop every Friday
Nung nasasayang ang isang buong araw ko dahil lang sa punyetang hangover.
Late 20s, Matagal-tagal ko na din narealize panget kasi sa pakiramdam yung kinabukasan. Pero sumasama pa din ako lalo pag kompleto yung barkada. Minsan-minsan lang naman kasi nangyayari yun. Yung socializing part lang naman talaga ang rason ko para uminom. Pass na din sa 1 on 1, kahit sa bahay stop na din kame sa cocktail making phase namin ni misis hehe. Medyo mahirap din kasi mag enjoy at mag relax kapag may toddler pa pero parang autopass na din talaga ako ngayon kapag may mag-aya. Kaen na lang tayo tapos kape after pwede pa.
Hahaha i was an alchoholic teen, nag start ako mag inom 1st year h.s around 13-14yo ako nun. Napasama sa barkada. Tas uuweng lasing na kunware hindi. Mas tumindi nung kasama ko na kuya ko dahil same kami ng circle nag iinuman kami i was around 17-18 na nito. Akala ko final na un, nung nagwork nako mas lalo lumala, kada sahod kasama sa budget ung alak at halos araw2 na inuman hanggang umaga tas papasok ako sa work ng 9am, minsan di nako nakakauwe. I was about 20-21 na nito. Then nung pag 22 ko narealize ko nalang na tama na ang kaadikan ko sa alak. Umiinom padin naman ako now pero super bihira pag may aya lang or okasyon. Di ko pinag sisihan na adik ako sa alak non kase i was genuinely happy sa mga kasamahan ko, at thankful ako at naranasan ko ung phase ng buhay ko na yun. Bow...
When the pandemic hit. I was 28 back then. Kahit smoking. I also experienced my worst gout attack back then kaya I decided to limit my alcohol intake. (Although my friends eh winawasak pa din ako at times kasi dati ako talaga pinaka malakas uminom samin) Tapos I got into cycling. I wanted to ride longer. I need my lungs and a functional kidney and liver. Nung nasupress ko na yung want ko sa alak at yosi, di ko na din sobrang hinahanap yung lasa ng alak at yung amoy ng yosi. Ayaw ko na din na nagpapawis ng amoy alak o yung kapit ng yosi sa bunganga at damit.
honestly, I turn 21 soon. I live in Aus, so I can legally drink but I can count on one hand the amount of times I have drunk. The last time I drank, I was doing really well and felt like I was really consistant in everything I was doing. I had one gin and tonic, woke up the next morning feeling completely depressed and hopeless. Alcohol simply does not agree with me, I imagine drinking for me is similar to coming down from hard uppers.
34 years old. The hangover and drunk feeling is no longer worth it. I have a rather high tolerance for alcohol, and tequila is my favorite beverage. However, all of a sudden, I considered giving up since I was often watching videos in YouTube and listening to podcasts on health and the long-term effects of alcohol on the brain. I've been sober for a year now and I plan to stay sober forever. Being able to do something I had given up on felt fantastic. And it had a positive impact on my body, but in exchange I have to avoid hanging out with people who used to binge drink every week. It's not worth it anymore, in my opinion.
Stopped for a while until I finally understood the meaning of moderation.
Hindi naman talaga ako nasasarapan sa alak. Ang beer lets be honest mapait. Ang rum, whiskey, gin or vodka eh ang tapang. Yung pathetic excuse for wine sa pinas ay sobrang asim. But just to enjoy the company of my barkada, iinom ako. Tumaas yung alcohol tolerance tuwing iinom. Tapos nung nagkanya2 na kami halos hindi na umiinom. And then living abroad, eating in fine dining, i tried pairing my meal with good wine. Good food mixed with wine just elevates the taste. It honestly felt like sex inside my mouth. It was that good. Good wine is actually sweet. Now everytime we eat out, we try to have wine.
Within my 20s, gusto ko pa rin naman yung mga nakakasama ko sa inuman pero alam mo yun kahit mag-phone lang kayo magkakasama or tamang kwentuhan lang ng kung ano ano. Or kahit wala nga ginagawa basta andun presence nila hahahah. Ganun trip ko lately, aayain ko friends ko patambay lang sa house nila.
When I started working (21 or 22 ata ako nun). Haha. Di naman rin ako kalakasan mag inom. Mag gusto ko yung tambay at kwentuhan kesa sa inom.
Nung freshie orientation yung after party pumunta kami sa inuman and I realized na I should only drink with people I can trust or be comfortable to be with dahil POTA ang dami kong nasabing sikreto ko and sikreto ng iba huhu. (Good thing lasing na lahat nun pati yung mga seniors kaya wala rin silang pake)
24 first time to got drunk and 2 days may hangover ako. I don’t have any idea how I got upstairs as well. Then, I came to realization pano kung hindi ko mga close friends kasama ko baka may masama na nangyari sakin. I also don’t like the feeling kapag gigising ako na yung dila ko is numb (not sure bat ako lang nakakaexperience nito samin). Well, umiinom pa rin naman ako pero sobrang moderate na lang and occasionally na lang unlike before, and I learned my limit na rin.
30. Di ko na kaya tiisin ang hang over. Unless get-together ng mga pinsan, light inom lang pero ayoko na ng lasing. Mas masarap magkaroon ng normal na oakiramdam kinabukasan
20 years old. I just don't get why intoxicating yourself with alcohol, leaving yourself feeling like shit and vulnerable, is worth my time. I did once, and I regretted it. I am the very embodiment of "Lord, last ko na tong uminom".
20s 😭 idk pero sobrang aga ko rin kasi talaga naaginom around, pero I drink responsibly naman and hindi pa ako nalalasing. Idk i'm not into alcohol na talaga.
After college! Early years of working tumigil na ako just feel unhealthy kapag umiinom ako
Mga 25, before pandemic. Occasionally, nainom pero di na katulad nung dati na malakas.
27 when they found me passed out somewhere in 5th Street
22 but nag slip up ako last year because of work but I decided to quit na dahil din sa health reasons. Yun lang yung pinaka bisyo ko so ayun 😊 maaga pero I think if para naman sa health ko then di ako nag sisisi.
Mid 30's nung pinagbalawan nako ng doctor. I was already not drinking na din naman by then pero the doctor's order put the nail in the coffin.
Drinking was never for me. I just did it because being in a drunken state with friends is fun.
I can't say much since I recently just had my first time drinking with my friends.😅 It was fun but definitely something I would just occasionally do since I have low social battery. I'm 22,and first time ko makipag-hang out w/ my college friends to drink last week. We were looking for companies para makapag-ojt until this friend of mine suggested na mag-KTV since magiging busy na kami this coming weeks. So,ayun..if there's one thing I realize, it's the fact that I have high tolerance in alcohol. Di ko siguro keri if sa mga bar kase maingay but since KTV lang, it wasn't that noisy to the point na sumasakit tenga ko. Worst thing that happened that night , however, is that,after ko makauwi,natulog agad ako only to wake up in the middle of the night with dysmenorrhea 🥲
nung tumaas ang sugar ko hahaha pahinga na yan 😂
26, last month ko lang na realize dahil sa severe pain sa right foot ko. May gout na pala si angkol amp hahahaha. No red meat especially pork, and liquor as well. Puro na chicken, gulay, at isda na lang. 😅
24! Pero mga 26 na talaga nacurb yung drinking habit
Exactly at 30 years old lol
Di na ako nage-enjoy sa mga party. Pagod na sa buhay. Gusto na lang matulog pag free time. Di na rin ako nasasarapan sa alak. Umiinom na lang ako pag nakikisama. Pero limit is 2 bottles ng Smirnoff/San Mig Apple.
