I’d have drunk at least twice as much during the various lockdowns if I hadn’t thankfully quit 2 years ago.
It’s a tricky one, but on the other hand it’s incredibly tough to give up drinking when working full time. Your sleep is massively affected for one, and the cravings are excruciating. Anyone still drinking excessively during a lockdown somewhere is wasting a golden opportunity to quit right now.
And to those who have used lockdowns to quit, huge well done.
I studied three sciences to a high level during lockdown. I had the time and it’s paid dividends in my new career. Don’t make excuses and waste your lockdown time by drinking.
