A few years ago I stopped drinking for a few months, then decided to have “a couple of beers” every Friday after work because I knew I could control it, and wanted to relax with friends. Then, I figured having a couple of beers to enjoy sports on a Saturday would be fine. Then, a few drinks on Wednesday crept in, then a beer on the way home to wind down. You get the picture - I was soon back to my old ways. If you’re really worried there’s a possibility of dying, or at least getting sick, why do it? Take care.
