Definitely agree. Alcohol was my escape of choice for the pandemic. I took 3 months off last year since it was getting too much, but went back to several drinks a night after that. Decided to stop again (maybe permanently) because I started paying more and more attention to how it affects me. Even just limiting it to the weekend results in my feeling cruddy for Mon-Wed. Both less energy and more anxiety, things I used to enjoy got more dull, headaches were more common.

Alcohol is poison, and I'm accepting the reality that there is no such thing as a "good amount".
