I was a weekend binger, but I suffered with bad hangovers, I never touched alcohol during the week.
I originally only stopped because in February I had some work to do on my house, I thought I would get more done if I didn’t have a hangover. I actually enjoyed feeling better every weekend...
I have been off the alcohol for over 9 months, I still go to pubs and not once have I thought I looked like a “social leper” ??? if I have a soft drink.
I also haven’t thought I must have a drink that looks like a pint, it really doesn’t bother me.
I suppose I’m lucky because I enjoy drinking...
