[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have alcohol use disorder and so I don’t drink at all any more, but I’m glad to see taking a break from drinking normalized, and other aspects of the sober curious movement like a wider variety of non alcoholic drinks, especially ones that are not sickly sweet mocktails. I don’t judge those that do dry January or those that don’t. [/quote] I would add that if someone is doing dry january, don’t press them for answers as to why they’re doing it. Some people who do it may not be big drinkers and it’s the equivalent of a juice cleanse for them. Some people who do it are concerned that they’ve got a problem. None of your business which journey they’re on unless they choose to share. Alcohol problems aren’t the alcoholic /not alcoholic binary that’s often pitched to us, and some people you know who appear to be just moderate drinkers are probably struggling more than you realize even if they don’t fall within the definition of alcoholic.[/quote]
