I don’t drink enough to warrant it. The odd one here and there if I go out for dinner. Definitely think more people need to think about their relationship with alcohol though.

It’s been around 70 days for me without a drink. Dry July is another great reason to keep it going!!

Coming up on 15 months for me, surprisingly don't miss it considering how much it was part of my life. The odd non-alc beer is fun too.

The Mrs and I swapped to alcohol free beer, like heaps normal and haven't really looked back. Great for having a beer at dinner.

Plus at the pub if you're expecting your mates to give you grief for not drinking, get a heaps normal in a glass.

Yeah I plan on it. Just admitted to myself last week that I do have a problem with alcohol and I want to do something about it. I’m not at all happy with the way that I use alcohol and I’ve finally realized it is a problem.
