Not disagreeing, but my reason... Escape. I don't want to be me, just for a bit.
Netflix - I can live in a much more interesting world for 45 minutes or so at at time.
Vodka - I can forget I'm me for a little while. (When I remember I'm me... time for another shot! 😂)
It's not a solution. But at least it's a relief for a little while.
Oh I agree, I binge too. That's why I was searching reasons ;)
