Top Tips on Cutting Down Alcohol

Has the stress of everyday life left you unwinding with a drink on a daily basis?

Do you feel reliant upon alcohol or feel that you drink more than you should?  If you do then you are not alone. Many people have got into a routine of drinking more than they would like to.  We all know that drinking more than the recommended amount can be damaging to our physical and mentlal health.  

Here’s a few tips on ways in which you can cut down your alcohol intake without making major changes in your life

• Calculate how much you dink and set a target which is achievable
• When you are out have smaller measures, 1/2 a pint rather than a pint  a small glass of wine, single shots with more mixer
• Be careful when drinking at home, self poured measures are normal larger than what you will get when you’re out
• Have one soft drink to every alcoholic drink, water is best but fruit juice and squash are good alternatives
• Take smaller sips 
• Work out how much you are going to drink and pace yourself
• Have at least two days a week where you don’t drink at all
• Replace the alcohol in your fridge for soft drinks to avoid temptation
• Do something at the time when you normally have your first drink like do some exercise, eat something or have a shower etc.
• Choose your drink with a lower alcohol content

Make your changes small and you are more likely to stick to them.  If you are having trouble cutting down alcohol we have therapists at the centre who can help you.
