...and I think it's a write-off in terms of quitting at the moment. I just feel like not even trying until I get to the new year. I typically take a month or two out of drinking at the start of the year and I need to face it fresh, you know? I have 3 xmas/new year parties lined up with work and that's without family stuff. I can not attend one or perhaps even two of them, but not all three without having to answer questions and I just don't think I have the mental energy to have to explain stuff. I mean I'm actually looking forward to two of them in particular because we're making a day of it.
I know the advice and guidance usually in alcohol cessation circles would most likely frown on what I'm saying here and I really do want to quit or at least cut down to minute levels, but I just can't see me doing it this Christmas/New Year. I don't know. I just want to get through this Holiday season and start a fresh in the new year. What do you think?
