Glad to have helped. It’s a good rule of thumb and at this point it’s not even conscious for me. It’s just muscle memory for me that if I’m feeling any of those things I don’t drink. I avoid drinking alone unless I’m doing something fun, I never drink if I’m dealing with personal shit, etc.
Basically if I don’t already have something fun going on, I don’t drink. My mindset is that drinking should complement something fun that’s already happening, not that it should be a source of fun on its own.
