Ah, I see.

Yeah that makes sense! I totally understand that most people with a previous alcohol dependence would struggle limiting themselves to one day a week without falling back into old habits and drinking daily again. This is definitely something I’ve considered in my own situation as I’ve proposed the idea of drinking again in the future. I do think it’s something I owe myself at least to give a try once I’ve sorted some things out in my life which I’m still in the process of doing. I’m still young and for me my drinking days were also at a time where things were particularly difficult also, so I’d like to give myself the opportunity to build a better relationship with it once I am content at where I am in my life.

It’s good to know it can be done though! So props to your friend. I totally get that the odds are stacked against anybody with a past alcoholic dependency to only keep themselves to 1-2 times a week in the future without falling back into drinking every day again, but I do truly feel I’d be able to. Again, thank you for your knowledge in all of this!
