Well if you are tryng to kill youself or some shit like that yeah probably, otherwise it is just curiosity

It's a mental thing to help me to quit drinking basically. If I try to just quit and make that my goal I'll blow but if I say "Well I'm doing a three day fast" then I have a reason to not drink other than as a thing in itself so it kind of tricks my brain
After the fast I'm gonna start trying to count calories and eat low-carb. Not keto cuz I think that shit's stupid but just less carbs and better ones like green veggies and shit. It's all less to lose weight and shit and more to get addicted to something other than drinking, although I am a fat fuck who needs to lose some weight so that will be a nice side effect
It probably sounds retarded but I need something, my life is shit right now and I don't believe in God
do you usually drink with meals? what culture are you from? if you don't mind me asking?
It's not about drinking with meals or whatever, it's about trying to re-channel my addictive personality into being disciplined about something.

I'm the guy who asked, well, I think it is a legit cause, but probably there are better methods to do it
this might be informative, but it leaves out some pretty important stuff, like Sino-Soviet split…
Most of my knowledge of Chinese history is the century of humiliation, 1839-1949
Here are the less conservative death tolls, source: wikipedia
First Opium War: 20,000 killed and wounded
Taiping Rebellion: Estimated 30 million dead
Boxer Rebellion: Over 100,000
Second Sino-Japanese War: Estimated to be over 22 million civilian casualties.
China was used to widespread death before Mao.
Great Leap Forward: 23-55 million depending on source.
Cultural Revolution: 750,000 - 10 million depending on the source.
Don't forget 20% of the population being starving opium addicts for centuries
