Stopping

[Jb69]

Hi just managed a month without drinking. Whats the best way to keep it up

[Emmmmmma]

Well done! I can’t really comment as I’ve just started going drink free BUT I have brought loads of food to meal prep in the evening to keep me occupied. Also loads of posh fizzy drinks to have in a wine glass as an evening treat. 😬

Nice. I have some green bottle cordial with tonic water. Just trying to read to turn off at the end of the day

What have you done so far to help yourself not to drink? Has it been an easy month? Why did you want to stop? I couldn’t stop by myself after trying it on my own for years. Nothing I tried worked for long and I tried everything. But that’s just me. I’m a recovering alcoholic now. And have been a happy one for 20 years.

Started off just not drinking duin the week then after xmas went full on. Just focusing on not drinking in the evening and not to far ahead. Seems to be working thus far

One day at a time, Jb69, one day at a time. I hope your way works. If it doesn’t, there are support groups than can. 🍀

Go with the flow , it becomes the norm rather than drinking becomes the norm ... I do drinks a lot of valerian tea which helps ..
