    IDK Im an older millenial and pretty much stopped drinking a decade ago. Never had a problem, but I just got too busy going back to school and working full time. Then I started noticing how many people I knew who were using it as a crutch to get through the week. Others were amazed when I said I couldn’t remember the last time I drank. It just started to really turn me off drinking once I noticed how seemingly everyone had a terrible relationship with alcohol.

    Now I drink again but not much. i buy a small box of wine to make a recipe every now and then and will drink the leftover glass or two. In the summer I feel a beer goes well with yard work but i buy a sixpack or two all summer and probably have leftovers come fall. Ocassionally I’ll go out and have a beer with people. All in all maybe $100-$200 a year but probably less

      Where i live alcohol isn’t available in the grocery store. So I basically stopped because I was too lazy to go too a separate store for something I didn’t really need. There are sooo meny other drinks available now that taste wonderful with no alcohol.
