How I did it: well im naturally a shy person so i often found the alcohol was a brilliant way of overcoming that haha and i realised i drink when im bored as well, seein as there is nothing to do in my town for someone my age really.

i was plannin on cuttin down for a while and had cut down a little bit but still drinkin about 50 units a week roughly, but then i went to a music festival. i drank quite a bit there, but i also gained confidence through talkin to ppl throughout the day and stuff that i didnt know. i had a great time and it just clicked that i dont actually need drink to talk to people or have a laugh.

 now the last couple of times we've gone to a pub the most ive had is 3 drinks over about 4 hours. its nice waking up without a hangover to.

 basicalyl just gain the confidence and find ways of having fun.
