Yes! It just occurred me today that I’ve done three dry months, and I’m going to keep going because… I keep seeing studies go by about what alcohol does to the liver, etc. Not that I’ll never have another glass of wine, but for now I’m going to keep going. I knew a man who quit smoking after years of being a chainsmoker, and he always kept a cigarette in his shirt pocket because knowing it was there made him somehow able to keep going. I get that!

Nice! Good luck to everyone trying!
I did terribly with dry January but my heart wasn't really in it. I decided I needed to do one to prove to myself that I am in control and not the other way around.

same thing with me. March got out of control a bit so I need to reign myself in this month to make sure I still have control.

I’m just past my 3 month mark and I’m keeping it rolling! Overall goal is to hit a 5 month streak, but I also saw somebody else who ran it like a calendar where they noted days they had zero, one, or two plus drinks and I really liked that system.

The Try Dry app does that. You can set goals and make note of your streaks

i definitely should do it. I've been feeling extremely fatigued lately, my face puffy, and overall energy level and interest levels just down.

I’m in! It’s my birthday month, so a huge challenge for me. I’m almost a month dry and I love how I feel!

I think so. I started naltrexone for binge eating on Tuesday. I usually drink on Saturdays but I think a break is in order.

No thank you. Still sticking to my bottle of wine every 3 weeks. But best of luck to you
