How to cut down drinking alcohol?

first you have to figure out *why* you drink. is it social? is it to escape? do you like the taste? once you understand your reasons for drinking, you can come up with a way to drink often enough to enjoy but not so often or so much that you endanger yourself or others

There was no good way for me. I haven't had a drink in over ten years.

Bunch of ways. Learning about how bad too much alcohol is for us, considering what could happen when you're drunk, not wanting to waste valuable time being hung over or just asking yourself why you drink, and what would it happen if you didn't, are solid starters. Another way is to take a gig, like a doorman or bartender, so you're around a lot of drunk people. I did a little bit of each and haven't touched alcohol in decades. Miss it zero much.

I had to quit entirely.There was no way for me to just slow down my intake.

Go visit someone dying of cirrhosis. It makes being crucified look like a gift.

Limit yourself to only Friday and Saturdays?

Remind yourself how you feel the morning after drinking. If you can associate that ugly feeling with a number of drinks you would be able to drink with very few consequences. If you drink ro excess sooner or later the consequences start coming.

Shifted focus from drinking as an activity years ago, before we had kids. I have a single beer/glass of wine w dinner couple nights a week .. and maybe an evening bourbon pour once/twice a week.

Limit weekday drinking
I only drink fri sat night atm
Not drinking everyday has helped massively and tbh eventually ill give the weekend drinking up

Self control

Something I have zero of when it comes to alcohol so I should just stay away from these questions hahaha

Try to limit it to once a week or so. Whatever works for you. Don't stock up on it or anything.

i don't drink as much after smoking weed. but i limit that to weekends

Just hide your drinking

Limit it to one a day

Stop lifting the glass
