Hi guys, need a bit of advice of sorts.
I have never been much of a drinker at all, but always enjoyed the odd bit with my partner and on nights out.
So last night I went to stay with some family and my cousin took me out and I had a few. I cannot describe how good it was to just let go and try and relax a bit without worrying about everything! My partner and cousin didn't have many and they looked after me fine.
I had a slight headache when we got in and I was very tired but apart from that I've felt fine today! Only worry was that if I had too much, would I be able to empty my bag etc.??
Was wondering if anyone has advice on the subject? Or I'd just like to know your stories how you've coped with it.
