Habitual drinker here. I wouldn’t say I have a problem, but I am wary of being on the precipice to having one. My intake is significantly lower than classical problem drinkers, but I still find myself having 2-5 beers 4-5 nights a week. It’s not good for my organs, my waistline, or my wallet so…

I’m not a Catholic, but lent seems like a good calendar excuse to stop drinking.

    Dry January, Sober Spring, Sober October, Lent, “I’m on these new tablets and I can’t drink,” they’re all good “pauses” to use to reassess our relationship with alcohol, and consider if it’s a relationship we want to continue.

    Just checking in to say, even if lent is over now, you don’t need to start drinking again.
