My husband and I have somehow fallen into the habit of drinking 1 bottle of red wine (me) and 4 big bottles of beer 3 times a week... this is too much right?
We're mid thirties, both have fairly stressful jobs and a toddler... I think we've veered off drinking for enjoyment and now it's just a lame habit in front of the tv.
The horrible thing is, I want to give this up. I quit drinking for 3 years in my twenties and felt great. I genuinely am finding it hard to see how I can give up.... I know I will feel clearer headed, sleep so much better, be happier with reduced/ no alcohol but most nights I get this "fuck it" attitude after a long day and we get a heavy take away meal in and drinks...
Eugh. Please! How do I get my mind to switch and see the booze for what it is?! How do you trick yourself to not drink every few nights?
