Do you get bored of alcohol if you drink every night? Does it affect your energy levels?

[AlcoholSchmalcohol]

I normally drink between 2 and 4 evenings per week, depending on our social plans. After a recent holiday where I drank for 13 days in a row (1 to 3 large glasses of wine or cocktails per evening depending, so say 2 on average) I'm having a break until Christmas to try to hopefully feel less tired.

I feel bored of wine and gin at the minute but am looking forward to a few cream liqueurs in Christmas week. I know my taste for wine will have returned by then too, whereas for now the idea of the glass of wine is almost unpleasant.

Do you get sick of alcohol if you drink it every day for a bit, such as on holiday?

I feel no different a week in with no booze. Tired as usual. Was hoping to feel a bit more energised I suppose? Don't know why I expected anything really, as dry January doesn't seem to make a difference either.

Do you notice a big difference in your energy and wellbeing when you are drinking, compared to when you are not?

Thinking about it I guess so but i ever drink on consecutive days if i’m on holiday, i dont drink much at home, maybe once in 2/3/4 weeks, not regularly anyway. Although have had a few Christmas socials recently and have had a drink weekly for a few weeks and will do for the next few weeks. Some social stuff i’ll drive to as I know that I’m rubbish the next day if I’ve had more than about 3 drinks.
On holiday I drink every night, but then on holiday I can sleep in and please myself the next day so I guess it might effect energy levels if I was having to get up and go at my normal times.
As for getting bored of it, I don’t know. The only thing I drink other than alcohol is water and I don’t get bored of that!
I do know that my liver looks forward to me getting home though 😂

on a fri and sat I will have 1 glass of wine..,,but only if I go out..l.so some weeks I go without alcohol at all….I certainly couldn’t drink 4 nights a week ….. I would feel ughheerrr🤢

Yes.
I used to drink much more regularly, but change in friends and lifestyle means it's much less frequent now - typically once every 7-14 days maybe. I do definitely get bored with it if I drink more often these days.
I also have way more energy in general (although regular gym also helps with that).

I drank 3 nights in a row Fri-Sun due to various Christmas parties, and today I absolutely didn't want wine, even though I would usually have thought it would have enhanced what we had for dinner. I don't anticipate drinking again before Christmas now, and then dry January often stretches to March, because once I consciously stop I'm not so fussed to start again...
