I’ve got so much more time since I stopped drinking.
If I go for a night out, I come home earlier, so I wake up earlier and feel bright and energised – even on weekend mornings.
Weekend days used to regularly be lost to hangovers.
Now I use them to connect with my family and friends; to work on my business; to go out for long walks; to read books.
But some of my favourite sober weekend days are the ones where I have a lazy, hangover day, having a lie in, watching films in bed, eating rubbish food, all without the headache, sickness, guilt of a hangover.
Sobriety doesn’t have to be all wholesome and productive.
How would you spend the extra time that sobriety would give you?
