How often do you drink alcohol?

I've fallen into the habit of having a drink every night at the moment.

Either a glass of wine or a G&T.

Who else? Or is it just me? 🤔

This made me laugh, why did they answer

Op I have a glass or two on weekend nights but try not to during the week

I was daily drinking, now trying for just Saturday and Sunday, Friday nights I find easy sober bit I seem to struggle with Sunday/Monday

Very rarely. Maybe twice a year. Was recently on an all inclusive holiday and still didn’t bother to drink even though it was part of the price. I do have a complex relationship with alcohol though. As a kid I only witnessed how destructive and ultimately fatal it can be. Alcohol addiction was all I saw as a young girl into my mid twenties. So I understand my relationship with drink is different but not uncommon

Most nights I have a glass of wine with dinner. Maximum abstention in the week is two nights. Occasionally I have a G and T before dinner. I have done this for more than twenty years. The amount I drink has never gone up in all that time. I sometimes stop for a month just to show I can. 😄

Around 5 nights out of 7 or every night on a bad week.

I don’t drink at all. I used to have a glass of wine five nights or so a week, and I thought about cutting down. I found it easy-ish to cut down and now it’s a normal habit. Drinking alcohol would seem very odd now.

Exactly the same!

I can go a week of having a glass of wine a night and more Fridays/Saturdays. But I try to keep Monday-Thursday alcohol free if I can. Will usually succumb at least one of those nights. I've started buying those Trip drinks for the week, so I feel like im having an 'adult drink' once I've got the children to bed. Currently sipping one now.

Never, doesn’t appeal to me

I used to drink a bottle
of wine most evenings… obviously I know it’s a problem and now I drink maybe 4 bottles of wine over the weekend. Totally cut out weekday drinking x

Every day if I could to get through the week!!

Just weekends, 1 or 2 bottles of wine over the weekend

Once or twice a week

Usually a glass of wine with dinner. Some weekends I’ll have more, but then will have more of a light snack for dinner (olives, anchovies, cured meats or cheese). When I’ve cut out alcohol before I’ve always put on weight! Think it’s the sugars that keep my hunger at bay as I don’t like sweet things like chocolate or candy. It really suppresses my appetite so have to be careful with weddings and events where people tend to drink earlier!

Pretty much every weekend, pretty much never during the week. 3-4 drinks over the weekend. Absolute lightweight these days and cannot handle hangovers so have to take it easy

Bottle of wine at the weekend. Used to have a few glasses throughout the week but I'm on a diet so I limit myself.

Right now - maybe a couple of times a month. One of these is a huge blowout though, I go out with a couple of my friends and consume a lethal amount of booze. And I will occasionally have a g&t at home or a glass of wine but that’s maybe every few weeks.

It’s been a conscious effort though. 2 years ago I would drink half a bottle of wine every night, some nights a full bottle. It was affecting my sleep and just overall wellbeing, so I stopped drinking at home.

I still drink like a fish on holidays and during Christmas. I never get hangovers and that in itself is a trap because drinking with no consequences is just too easy.

More than ever at the minute. 2-3 glasses maybe 2-3 times a week.

Not often. Perhaps once every three or four months but when I do, I drink as much as I want.

Maybe 2 or 3 times a month and usually only about 2 glasses. Love having a clear head.

More than I want to really.
I used to manage to have 3 days off,now it is down to two.
I will drink a half or 3/4 of a bottle of wine ,sometimes a full bottle for the rest of those 5 nights.
I really want to only drink a half bottle but do struggle to limit myself once i get pouring.

Now I never drink. My stomach issues became such that last time I drank it took 6 weeks to settle down. Not worth it anymore sadly.

Once or twice per month.

I would say 0-5 times a year. Assuming not what you wanted to hear :)

At the very most once a week.
My husband had a chronic illness when we met in our 20s. It really tested us and we didn't drink together as a couple as alcohol made his condition worse.
At the time I felt sad we couldn't do what other couples did...fast forward 15 years and I'm so happy alcohol isn't a big part of a/ my life and b/ our relationship

It's whisky innit. Makes you aggressive
