      Yet a ton of people started to drink alone during isolation and all of a sudden had an addiction after never having one before. I don’t think addiction is as black and white as you make it seem. Addiction is incredibly complex, which studies can back up, and that’s entirely what the “don’t drink alone” is about. If you drink only with others but you only are with friends once every other week then you are probably much less likely to form a problem than If you decide to drink by yourself. There would be a lot more opportunities to drink by yourself than if you only drink socially with others. Just because you aren’t a victim to it doesn’t make the saying BS.

      I understand your point, I just don’t think it’s as simple as you’re making it. Drinking alone just carries more risk, that’s all.

      Speaking of which though, what’s your favorite craft beer?
