Hahaha yes. Like go to the gym in the week and eat good and then eat 17 burgers on a weekend to ruin it all. Thems the rules

It is a mad situation when it's totally normal to have to give away your weekend to feeling rubbish. It's incredible how much alcohol just makes you think everything is okay to do when your sober self would be livid. Hope you're not feeling too rough today!

Yesss. I had a coffee date in Soho at like 11pm years and years ago and it was the best. That guy was actually sober and he was one of the reasons I stopped drinking. I would LOVE a cafe I could go to of an evening

You're great too, and that girl that ghosted you can suck an egg

What a blessing to have that experience and people who could live the reality of a healthy lifestyle and relationship with alcohol

Yeah, if it wasn't the only thing able to facilitate a conversation, this wouldn't be an issue

I was the same, I didn't drink at home but I did get black out drunk between 4-7 times a week, it was social it didn't feel like an issue. I'm not saying everyone's an alcoholic, sorry if it felt like I was pushing that, it just takes a lot of different forms which are sometimes hard to recognise

That's so grim to be like no thanks and people just override you and get you a beer. I lost a few friends when I stopped drinking, the good ones don't go anywhere and I'm sure you're right that a bunch of mates now would be a lot more supportive

It's mad having your weekends back. 8am on a Saturday? I'm simply up and not sicking myself to death / eating 18 take outs. It's the maddest feeling in the world. You deserve all the best days and no hangovers 👊

I think that's normal, especially for so many women in my experience. It's when we make bad choices, are incredible self destructive etc. I'm sure it's the same for men too, but my female friends and myself have always seemed to maybe admit it more? Idk

Ahh friend. It's so easily done, if you do ever wanna give up then there's lots of people (including me) that would be happy to support you. It's just so easy for a night to be ruined because of it

1000000%. I just say "I used to enjoy it too much", which I feel like is a diluted version. It's so mad that we have to bend language to make it seem more normal when it IS normal

100%. I always had a social event coming up that meant it wasn't a good time to stop - it's my birthday in a month, then it's festival season, then it's Christmas, then it's valentine's.. it's the social pressure to be "fun" that stops you often

It's so sad isn't it, how there seems to be so little you can share with a group of people aside from being drunk. What happened to going to a gig, or the theatre, or a walk or for coffee or literally ANYTHING

I was ghosted by a boy who I had mutuals with and was set up with by said mutuals, he told them he found it awkward that I didn't drink and that's why he never spoke to me again lmao lol thanks for crushing what little is left of me

Yes, throwing up outside a bottomless brunch at 1pm on a Sunday? Fine. One drink at lunch? Call the police

This is exactly it. I was actively ruining my life by drinking, completely unable to make good decisions and damaging myself and others every time I drank for over a decade and everyone was like yeah but you didn't drink this Tuesday so you must be fine??

YES! I still don't say I'm an alcoholic to anyone IRL because it just feels like they think I'm being dramatic

I didn't really think about it like this. It's odd as well because people don't class being an alcoholic as someone who is unable to regulate the amount they have, it's just if you drink at "inappropriate" hours which is madness

No slight on this woman by the way as she's genuinely lovely. Just everyone in England really normalises joking about something that affects or impacts the lives of so so so many of us
