How often do you drink alcohol?

[Poptart4]

I drink 4 nights a week.

Sometimes I'll have just 1 or 2 drinks to unwind after a long day, sometimes abit more (weekends).

Just curious to see where I stand compared to everyone else?

None, a few years now since. It was making my head have more fuzzy days than normal days.

Every day.

I haven't touched alcohol for 3 years now.

I never really drink at home unless I'm pre drinking before going out.

I drink once or twice a month if I'm going out, I don't go out much these days. When I do go out I do drink a fair bit.

We enjoy drinking specialty teas as well as tonics without alcohol, cordials or fruit based cocktails. So we definitely don’t feel deprived if we’re not having alcoholic drinks!

Depends, but nowadays it's only if I'm out, whereas I used to drink a lot at home too.

I've had a drink 4 times so far this year.

Two bottles of wine a night (minimum), every night. I'll often start at 4pm, and I'm genuinely impressed if I manage to wait until 6 or 7.
Today, I started at 5 to 12pm.

I'm an absolute alcoholic and I wish desperately I could stop. I have three young children and a wonderful husband (also an alcoholic but works full time so he manages to not drink during office hours).

I hate myself for it.

I drink two or three times a year.

I used to drink a few times a week but as I have got older it doesn’t seem worth it. Hangovers have got worse and I feel really anxious for days afterwards.

Once every two years maybe.

Usually if out and not driving (about once in a couple of months) ! Find it gives me a fuzzy head now .If you like a drink now and then thats fine just dont overdo it!

Never!

I have a glass of wine on a Saturday night, that's it for me. If I go out (probably 3 times a year) I'll have about 4 drinks

Last weekend i had 2 glasses of wine during lunch at a friends house, before that it was New Years Eve.

I'm have one or two drinks every couple of months usually.

Although this year so far it has been maybe one a month.

Almost every day I'll,have a glass of wine. Sometimes just half a glass
At the weekends I might have 2 glasses

Maybe 4 or 5 times a year? I don’t really enjoy it to be honest.

Once in a blue moon. Literally.

Never, it tastes horrible and makes me feel sick.

namechange - is there no way you could reach out to someone for some help?

I drink Friday Saturday and usually Sunday - three glasses of wine each night. If I take one sip more than three glasses I feel dreadful the next day.

Most evenings in fact I'm at my local right now having my first glass of 🍷

Rarely. Usually only at parties or when we eat out. Occasionally at home.

I don’t think 4 nights a week is excessive, if you’re worrying!

About once every other month?

Mumsnet is full of people who get tipsy on a thimbleful of champagne at Christmas. They exclaim in horror about anyone having drink more often. From my knowledge of friends and acquaintances this is not that usual a position.

@namechangeforthistobehonest you’re brave to face up to it. Have you ever tried support groups or anything like that?

I used to drink 7 nights a week a glass of wine 5 of those nights and about half a bottle 2

I now drink a glass of wine less then once a week
I went off alcohol in January when I got a hangover.
