After a sober new years because I was on call, I decided to keep it going.
Here’s what I’m doing that is helping me so far:
-
No caffeine. It puts me on a rise/crash cycle where I end up going for the beer just to get through the evening.
-
No alcohol lying around; environment is stronger than willpower.
-
Keeping busy until the liquor stores close
-
Eating properly and regularly, so I never reach a state of low energy and low willpower. Because you know a beer will fix that real quick and then you’re back in the cycle.
Also really helps after ADHD diagnosis and having medication to kill the uneasy itchiness that I was using alcohol for.
