Part 5/10:
As the narrator dove deeper into the effects of alcohol on health, they stumbled upon the harsh truth: alcohol, rather than being a nightly helper for sleep, was posing significant dangers to overall well-being. Misconceptions abound regarding alcohol's role as a sleep aid. It may allow individuals to drift into unconsciousness more readily, but the quality of sleep suffers drastically. Instead of allowing for restorative rest, alcohol fragments sleep and inhibits the natural sleep cycles essential for physical and mental rejuvenation.
This revelation was pivotal. Understanding that alcohol is more poison than pleasure prompted the narrator to extend their period of abstinence beyond the 75 Hard challenge.
