When I tell them that the actual problem is that I drink every night the responses are always "why don't you just stop drinking on weekdays than"? Good question, wish I had a better answer other than "I don't know, because I can't".
Glad to see you turning it around! This is a great community

Welcome,
I didn't think I could or would stop drinking but we can surprise ourselves. We get used to the cycle of drinking and hangovers but it really is way better without either. I check in here everyday to keep my eye on the prize. You can stop too. Not easy, but so worth it.
