Love this! I’m just trying out sober October at the moment (to be fair I failed on day one as we had a roast chicken dinner that was CRYING out for white wine!), but I’ve been enjoying it since then. I think - for a lot of us - lockdown made drinking more of a common “thing” in our lives and a lot of people are now doing their best to undo this habit of “why not?” and are thinking more about the implications to their health. I know I am! I don’t know if I’d ever give up fully (red wine and a cheeseboard is my favourite thing) but I definitely think I’m keen to reframe my relationship with alcohol now I’ve really noticed what it does for my anxiety. Thanks for sharing this 🤍
Definitely agree re. lockdown! Try thinking about those amazing Saturday mornings spent full of life rather than the delicious red you're going without - it really helps. Good luck! X
