Yes it improves my bad company 2 performance... maybe

This man speaks sense! Being tipsy is awesome for a night on UT or COD. The times I've came in and switched the console on for a few gaming sessions...

I drink at home sometimes, mainly on fri/saturday nights if I'm not out due to friends being skint/in couple's hibernation/just not wanting to go out.

Don't see a problem with it, part of my unwinding and relaxation technique involves having a few drinks and playing games with friend and chatting on vent.

Don't see it being a problem, I'm not dependent on alcohol at home or out in town. Sometimes I just enjoy the taste of a nice red wine and relaxing with mates.

Strongbow + COD or Battlefield = good times until i cant shoot start, then bed!

Yes I do and my weapon of choice is Whiskey

I have on occasion, only if I'm stuck in on my own on a friday night or something, very rare but I find it quite enjoyable.

I can't really watch films or play games or read a book after a few drinks, just can't concentrate enough, music however, I could listen to it all night and day.

If I'm in by myself I sometimes go out and get a few beers and a kebab to consume while I watch a film.

i sometimes have whiskey or beer when i get home from work while watching a bit of tv but i dont get drunk alone

Nah,

I don't drink much anyways so it's always with company. Share a bottle of Jacques with my girl occasionally and whenever I'm at the pib 'tis Strongbow time!

I may have a few can's while I am playing BF2, Bad Company 2 on line on my own.
Other than that, I drink with others as it is very social.

There is quite a difference between drinking alone and getting drunk alone (meh if this has been mentioned, just answering for myself). I will often have a bottle of beer whilst playing on the computer and watching the TV.

Drink yes, but get drunk? No.

DirtyJester · 21 Jan 2011 at 13:52

I'm not a big drinker. Usually just drink when im out but never at home by myself. Not good four your health

Psy-Blade · 21 Jan 2011 at 15:40

Beginning to get drunk alone before going out and meeting friends. +1 wallet.

Dirk · 21 Jan 2011 at 15:48

I can't stand people so yes, always!

Deadbeat · 21 Jan 2011 at 15:59

Yes, I sometimes get drunk alone. Not often, maybe once every few weeks. I used to smoke weed alone and read, but I don't do that any more. I used to take ketamine and watch anime, but I don't do that any more. I enjoy my own company and I'm very comfortable with myself. I've been drinking for more than 10 years in this fashion, yet I've never felt addicted, never had my habits impact on my home or social life, never had them complicate my education or employment. I enjoy altered states of consciousness, yet I've somehow managed to avoid becoming a gibbering, homeless wreck - more than that, I've even maintained healthy and involved relationships with many people over the years, some brief & intense and others long-term & steady. Exactly where in that is the problem?

Do you drink alone?
