Žurerski vikend

Odkar imam resnejše težave s tesnobo, se pogosto izogibam druženju. Tako prijateljski kavici kot tudi bolj intenzivnim druženjem, npr. žuriranju. In če sem se že odločil, da bom spremenil vzorce obnašanja, to pomeni, da je treba včasih tudi žurirati. In to sem počel to soboto. Ena izmed slabosti žuriranja pa je tudi, da to seveda vključuje določeno mero alkohola. Za alkohol pa vemo, da na splošno škoduje psihičnemu zdravju.

Sam sicer opažam, da mi je to intenzivno druženje, kljub začetnemu odporu, koristilo. Pogovarjal sem se tako s prijatelji kot tudi z osebami, ki sem jih prvič spoznal na zabavi. Socializacija zagotovo pomaga pri izboljšanju psihičnega stanja! Nadalje smo noč preživeli in preplesali v klubu, kar prav tako pomaga pri izboljšanju psihičnega stanja zaradi fizične aktivnosti. Na poti domov pa obvezno mastna hrana, t. i. kebab, kar pomaga pri izboljšanju poalkoholnega stanja. Tudi dokazano pomaga.

Naslednji dan se sicer zbudiš dehidriran in z glavobolom, kljub popitim nekaj kozarcem vode pred spanjem in med njim. Vendar si na en način prijetno fizično utrujen, tako, da se ti niti misliti ne da. Kar je zame samo plus. Opažam sicer tudi nekoliko zvišano depresijo, bolje rečeno slabo voljo po alkoholu. A tudi to je danes že minilo. Žuranje je zelo dobro, vendar samo občasno. Malo se sprostiš, zavore popustijo. Občasno je čudovito spustiti nadzor, sploh pri ljudeh, kot sem jaz, ki imajo radi nadzor, kar jim pa na koncu tudi škoduje.


Party Weekend

Since I started having more serious issues with anxiety, I often avoid socializing—whether it's a casual coffee with friends or more intense gatherings, like partying. And if I've decided to change my behavioral patterns, that means I sometimes have to party, too. And that's exactly what I did this Saturday. One of the downsides of partying, of course, is that it involves a certain amount of alcohol. And as we know, alcohol generally harms mental health.

Personally, I noticed that this intense socializing, despite my initial resistance, actually helped me. I talked with both friends and people I met for the first time at the party. Socializing definitely helps improve mental well-being! We spent the night dancing in the club, and as we know, physical activity also contributes to better mental health. On the way home, there was the mandatory greasy food—aka kebab—which helps improve the post-alcohol condition. It's proven to help.

The next day, you wake up dehydrated and with a headache, despite drinking a few glasses of water before and during sleep. But in a way, you're pleasantly physically exhausted, so you don’t even feel like thinking. And for me, that's a plus. I did notice a slight increase in depression—or better said, a bad mood—after the alcohol, but that has already passed today. Partying is great, but only occasionally. You relax a bit, and the inhibitions loosen. Sometimes it's wonderful to let go of control, especially for people like me who like to be in control, which, in the end, also harms them.
