I never had a real problem with drink, so it's easy for me to talk about moderation.
Even so, knowing that alcohol affects my sleep badly has led to me reducing the amount I drink to under half what it used to be.Knowing when to stop and practice moderation seems to have been taken from us due to some cultural thingo?
After all, opiates were OTC(effectively) in Australia before 1968.I've spent a lot of time around people who say, as they are mixing up the next dose, that they are going to stop tomorrow.
All or nothing.
But we don't have to permit ourselves everything.What is it that sometimes enables us to stop?
My parent's generation would not have liked to so easily lose control of themselves.
