[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know what is a normal amount of drinking. I am drinking 1-2 glasses of wine with dinner 5-7 times a week. I want to stop, or cut back. I don’t know how to do it. I feel bad.[/quote]

If you're drinking that much, which seems like a lot TBH, just stop for an extended period of time (like 6 months). Since it is a drug, it is much easier to stop all together then to have a little bit here and there. That's been my experience. After 6 months, you probably won't want to go back. [/quote]

If you have to ask if it’s a normal amount, chances are you already know it’s too much. I appreciate the advice of just quit … but don’t be surprised if it’s not easy! Make it the goal, but be prepared to slip up and don’t be discouraged if you have to give it a few tries before it sticks. Quitting alcohol is simple, but not necessarily easy. Educate yourself on the health consequences of drinking - that was a big motivator for me. There’s also a lot of quit-lit out there if you’re looking for inspiration from people who’ve been there done that. Also remember, rock bottom is a myth. Just because things could be worse or you haven’t messed up your whole life or whatever, doesn’t mean it’s not time to quit. You’ve got this![/quote]
