I know there are a few dry January threads going around atm. I'm trying to cut down in the new year, probably won't manage a full January off but I would prefer to significantly reduce my intake in general not just have one month off then go back to normal. With that in mind I'm trying to think of all the negative things about alcohol to put me off reaching for a lovely wine.
For me the worst thing is the anxiety it gives me after a big night out. The waking up in the early hours of the morning in panic wondering what you said and did. Did I offend anyone? Did I make a fool of myself? Are there any terrible pictures of me on social media? It's a truly horrid feeling and something I get a lot more now I'm older and should know better!
