That’s gonna be my challenge with social drinking, which I’m not trying to cut out, at least for now – but I typically have a couple more when I get home from the night out (however late it is), and that needs to stop.

Last beer on Christmas Eve. Coasting easily through until Easter Sunday. Then, maybe a beer or 2. I’ll be repeating this yearly, for 3+ months of a dry spell. Maybe even go to June this year or next. Everyone (most everyone) doing good, from what I read here.

Sure, but less is more, right?
None is even better!

Can’t argue with that!
Day four, I will not drink alcohol today. It’s too early to really evaluate the effects, but one obvious direct one is that I’m going to bed (much) earlier, because I don’t have the cycle of “I have a beer to finish so I’ll watch a video” → “I have a video to finish so I’ll open another beer”, which can otherwise recurse indefinitely.

I feel great today. Woke before the alarm and was thrilled I didn’t have to waste time sleeping.
A good nights sleep was the early reward. Now it seems to be bouncing out of bed happy to be alive. All without alcohol or jaysus.

And then you decided to spam this thread with inappropriate content.
Dunno why you got kudos either.
Because we have low expectations of that clown

I will not drink alcohol at home today. I will just have some water and go to bed, damnit!

Disclaimers?
No one is going to give you shit if you slip, B.
Chillax.

I had a social drinking exception to begin with, but drinking more when I get home – which I typically do – would be slipping. So it’s a modest goal today.

I hear that. Accountability thread and all. Moderation is a part of accountability.
Not a sobriety thread. We can start a self-flagellation thread somewhere else if needed, I suppose.
How did you feel making it to 3PM?
To be fair you did declare that you relapsed (possibly not the right word) yourself in this thread.
