Quitting wine

Decided to quit drinking today. Love wine but it’s become a massive problem & I needed to quit. Did it once before a couple of years ago for 4 months & then started again. So many reasons to stop, health, weight, cost, sleep, saying stupid things I wouldn’t say sober. I basically drink wine how someone would drink water & that’s not good on so many levels.

Good choice, Sunflower. If something causes problems, get rid of the something. You could look at why you started drinking again when you previously were able to stop for those months. What worked and what didn’t? Was it peer pressure? Being in a tempting situation? Forgetting why you stopped ? Whatever the reasons, there are solutions. We’re here to help. 😊
