[QUOTE="Bex72, post: 2297799, member: 528595"] It's interesting to read your recall of your experience with drinking. It is so entwined in socialising and stress that it becomes a dependency that you people don't like to admit. I was always the one that drank too much every couple months and would ruin a weekend with an atrocious hangover. I then had my closest friend diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour and my reaction was to drink a lot more. I then decided to stop for a month for charity and it rolled forwards for almost 3 years. I went back to drinking in lockdown due to stresses. I also stopped eating as healthily, lots of snacking etc and put on a lot around the middle. I hadn't drunk for a couple of weeks since the diabetes diagnosis but have a couple of bottles of spirit to mix a miniscule amount with coke zero. I've waved goodbye to my glasses of wine. [/QUOTE]
