I Can’t Drink Now Like I Used to a Few Years Ago (26M), is that Normal?



During college and a few years after (maybe til 23/24) I drank almost weekly and don’t get drunk that easily. In terms of beers, maybe I get tipsy at about 6 and give up at 10.

But now, I drink 2 and I get tipsy, and maybe tap out at 4/5.

Is that normal?

    Why would you be concerned about your body’s decreased ability to tolerate high levels of self poisoning? I have some vague idea why, but I’d like to hear someone formulate it into words.

      i personally prefer to have a high tolerance so that when i do find myself in a social situation i can drink whatever is there and not worry. if i don’t have at least a double shot of bonded bourbon a night, i’ll have 4 or 5 light beers.
