[quote=Anonymous]Drinking massively slows down in your 50s for this reason. I have for sure - can only do one or two drinks at best or I am up at 2 am and sick to my stomach/exhausted the next day. I have noticed drinking slowing down in spaces that previously were heavy drinking spaces - our community pool has a lot of older members now and the drinking culture has decreased so much in the last couple of years; same with neighborhood block parties full of families that bought at the same time and now are mostly in their early 50s. I have a set of friends in their 40s, and drinking hasn't abated yet, but I imagine it will within a decade. Those that can keep it up in their 50s have rare genetics or have built tolerance by likely drink every night - my parents drank every night and didn't slow down till their late 60s But us social drinkers without super human liver genes are stuck with one glass of wine when we are out and about. Sorry! [/quote]
