Hi all,
I think I have an alcohol intollerence which means I can't drink very much. To put it clearer I turn red/purple after a drop of alcohol and after a few more I get sleepy or throw up before I'm "drunk", is this normal? In todays society people tend to drink socially and I feel the pressure to drink despite knowing that my body doesn't like it.
The pressue I face generally come in the form of male friends suggesting that I'm less of a man because I can't drink. This I know is stupid and bares no logic but still I can't stand that jab. The second is that I find socialising difficult without removing my inhabitions through drink as I'm always concerned of what people think. I feel that this is a double edge sword and wish I could drink.
