Why We Drink, What Alcohol is Really Doing For You
The bottle of wine on a Tuesday evening. The beers that have become routine. The part of you that wonders if it’s becoming something more, and the part that doesn’t want to look too closely. I’m not here to tell you whether you drink too much—that’s not the point. What I’m interested in is this: what’s the alcohol actually doing for you? Because it’s almost never just about the alcohol. It’s about what softens, what quiets, what becomes bearable.
