Was it stress, maybe boredom, loneliness? matched

Pressure or maybe you just needed to check out. matched

And then the deeper question, what do you actually get from the reset afterwards? matched

That one can be uncomfortable because the answer might be, I get to feel disciplined again. matched

I get to feel like I'm improving. matched

I get to become the comeback version of myself. matched

That's useful to know because if you only look at the drinking, you might be missing half the pattern. matched

All right, second thing is reduce the size of these swings. matched

You don't need to fix everything overnight. matched

Just make the lows less low. matched

Plan a lower drink night before the night starts. matched

Alternate drinks. matched

Use sunny side, of course, before you already are in that moment. matched

And then ask one question like, what kind of morning am I choosing right now? matched

And that's gonna help pull you out of this short term and makes the future version of you part of the decision in the now. matched

And then third, learn to tolerate steady. matched
