I've noticed that as I get older, I'm not able to drink as I used to. It began to change, for me, after turning 40. That doesn't bother me. However, I'm about to turn 44, and I'm down to 2 beers as my daily limit. More than that and I'll wake up in the middle of the night with a fast heart beat. Tylenol before bed seems to help.
I also feel the effects of alcohol much sooner. Maybe it's just understanding my body better but I prefer to drink beer in the late afternoon, early evening and I don't drink past 7 anymore. If I go past 2 beers in that time span, I'll feel the effects much more than I used to. I also don't crave beer like I once did. I don't drink anything else besides beer.
I stopped drinking during the week. Drinking only on the weekends and only in moderation.
Have you noticed similar changes? Is it all part of getting old? Geez, I'm only 44! I'd like to know if there are others going thru similar changes... Or if I should see my doctor! LOL
