Thanks for talking about this! I recently went through a few months where I hardly drank anything, and I definitely noticed the benefits. Having said that, I do love the occasional beer or cocktail to relax. I think it’s when it becomes a routine habit that it can become a problem.

Keep up the great work!

Yeah I'm on the same page as you! Occasionally for celebrations, but I just feel so much better when I'm not drinking all the time. Glad you enjoyed the essay, and thanks!

So insightful! At the ripe old age of 23, I find that casual drinking just isn't really for me. My partner is sober and it really has opened my eyes to having fun at parties without it (and without the hangover)!

Gosh that is the key point for me - no hangover after a night out! It's honestly the best.
