Hi I am on my 6th dry January since 2015, and will have no issue doing the month and perhaps a few more days. However once I start drinking again, I find I will drink everyday sometimes until the next dry January or until say a dry June/ October/ November. It is very much once I have had a day drinking the next day I really want one, if I don’t drink for 3 days it is no issue.
When drinking typically I will have two G&Ts and a bottle of wine, so around 13 units or 91 a week, all between 6.30pm and 10pm, not good, though I live a normal life and have no real issues when stopping bar a little anxiety. I am in my late 50s and all my friends drink and to be fair I it takes away the boredom of life, but I cannot see a way I can just drink at weekends or say on a Tuesday and not again until the weekend. Any thoughts help?
