Keeping busy (sh.itjust.works)

Do you guys notice when youre keeping your brain active and busy its fine (hyperfocusing on multiple projects, manic business etc) . But if you want to wind down you feel the need to drink so it slows your brain down? If I dont, my brain never stops and its hard to enjoy doing something that isn't one of my 3000 projects.

I especially find this with gaming. Its very hard to stay engaged in any game without drinking because its a "waste of my time"

On gaming specifically, at least I suffer from the opposite, if I don't police myself, I risk getting dehydrated, as I either play games that engage me, or try to find the fun in them, and then I get so focused by the game I forget water.
