You can’t unseeing, what you see.
The Matrix belief system mostly propose the “benefits” towards pleasure, by raising dopamine; entertainment, pleasure, relaxation, more confidence, etc. The marketing is very clever to get you hooked: celebrate life with Champaign, happy New Year!
But underneath, the Matrix belief system works on the pain side.
The Matrix experience always correlate pleasure with pain, as alcohol is also a depressant, a pain killer, numbing anxiety, feelings of loneliness, stress, etc. But the fuel to run the Matrix is ethanol, a poison, so your body wants to get rid of it, it takes 7-10 days to do so, lowering your immune system, raising the risk of breast cancer in women, lowering testosterone levels in men, reducing your libido, making you fat, disrupting your sleep, dehydrating your skin, altering your brain cells, eating away your spirit. No wonder why alcohol holds you back; you need to recover all the time! And the longer you repeat the poison over time, the more difficult it gets to recover from those more profound artifacts.
