I don't really drink — chronic pain/migraines. Or is the drinking optional?

Drinking absolutelyoptional! It's mainly just a fun name.

I also haven’t been drinking much and am just back from a pretty booze conference (although not as bad as it used to be). I think a fun little chat including exactly this topic would be awesome!

That is to say, I would love to hear any of you in the thread discuss this point

I enjoy all the drinks but I'm not good with staying up late, so conferences are hard. Also kind of amazed at how everybody else does it?

I have NO IDEA how they do it!! More power (if you’re not being a drunk asshole & hitting on women at a professional event!)

I should say that if I stay out late it's probably with several people I know so luckily I haven't experienced such behavior

A lot of drinking is down to 2 things if I understand correctly: some ppl's livers are "better" at dealing with alcohol's behavioural effects (and men typically are bigger than women, thus have bigger livers, which helps) & drinking often helps to make 1 used to the effects.

I neither come from a culture that drinks often (no culture in the Levant/Middle East drinks a lot) nor do I enjoy the fact its a migraine trigger nor (sadly?) do I particularly enjoy the culture around drinking. I do go out for drinks with my lab etc but most often drink water.

Also I generally avoid staying out late at conferences, only bad stuff seems to happen either to me or around me. It just attracts sadly the wrong kinds of behaviour.
