Anybody ever....

[myway]

Any of you ever went from drinking every day to not drinking... or drinking in moderation? Does it ever really work out?

Me and yes it does work.
I was drinking constantly up untill I had my first born. Of course i was young so it might not have affected me the way that it would effect an elder. But any how i would start drinking at about 4 pm no lie untill I passed out. Get up and start all over again.
then I went a while without really drinking much. Untill we moved to italy and I started drinking a lot again.
I go through fazes where I will drink every weekend and then there is times when I dont drink at all for months on end. All depends i guess. But I have had no problems with doing it that way.

Before I got married I drank every weekend, from Friday night to Sunday night. Many weekends were blackouts. Once I got married I stopped that completely. I still drank to excess on occasion, but not on a regular basis. It tapered down from that.

My husband used to drink quite a bit as he had no familial commitments and it was (still is) industry standard. Now he rarely drinks and when he does it is just a few drinks.

Me, I am small and alcohol hits me fast. I feel sickly often without alcohol so I go weeks without any. Then if I want, I will have 2 - 4 drinks maybe twice a week.

When I was having my children, then competing/modeling I went MONTHS and MONTHS without any alcohol at all.

I think I had some alcoholic tendencies when I was in college, even was drinking alone one occasion or being drunk by it was time to take the elevator trip down to the caf for dinner. Id be the one at dinner smelling like alcohol. How pitiful. I never made any conscientious effort to quit. It just dissipated over the years. I grew up, got a real job, became a parent, etc. I cant even remember the last time I had any alcohol.
