I consistently drank 4-6 cups of wine/beer per day for ~5 years.
A few major ways it changed my life:
1. I suddenly lost weight! Drinking calories makes it difficult to stay healthy. My friends and family noticed my weight loss before I told them about my sobriety.
2. I make better decisions in group settings. I no longer stay at social gatherings where I'm bored while sober, and I don't embarrass myself nearly as often.
3. Sobriety adds an extra 1-3 hours to my days. It's unsurprising that a CNS depressant sapped my motivation and energy!
