Staying sober when it feels like everyone is getting smashed

DJ Santero | May 2020 |

If you're worried about how to manage your drinking post-lockdown, Ministry of Sound's DJ Santero has you covered.

When I was drunk, I assumed that everyone I partied with was as smashed as me. It never even occurred to me that they might not be.

In general, most of the pressure I have ever felt has come from within, from an assumed sense of what social expectations are.

When I weigh what I’ve gained in the past two years against what I’ve lost, the comparison is so lopsided as to be laughable. Healthier, wealthier, happier, in so many ways.
