Giving Up/Cutting Down Alcohol Thread Part 17

Elisheba said:Can I join please? Just trying to work out how it works. Do I state how many AF days I want at the beginning of each month here and report how its going?
I've very much trying to cut down on the booze, for quite a few reasons. Its always linked to smoking for me, which is so expensive and bad for me. I seem to spend half my life in nicotine withdrawal. Its also a case of often not drinking in moderation and getting stinking hangovers, and this also leading to poor mental health. And the alcohol and cigarettes together are a nightmare financially. So ideally I want to stick to high days and holidays only, and never on my own (which limits it a lot as I live alone).
So no high days and holidays planned for the rest of the month, so 19 AFD for me until the end of October, please? (if that's the right thing to say/do?)hi Elishebaand welcome
I've added you to the list, best of luck with the challenge!
