But having said that, I don't exactly understand how much steam you do have to blow off in order to be able to tolerate the life that you're leading— that high stress, anything is possible at a moment's notice life.

I've already said I know what alcohol contributes to these sorts of situations, but by the same token, you know, it's like how much do people need to let off steam?
