I'm a little annoyed actually with some of the comments I've received from people who I thought would be supportive. I told people I've stopped drinking and some of the reaction is 'Ha, good luck with that' in a tone to suggest I won't succeed.
Others who have been supportive have said 'Well done and there's nothing wrong with having a sociable glass or two of wine with me though, when we meet up'
Grrr!!!
I don't want to make a huge deal out of why I've given up, too much explaining to do. I want to just keep it short, sweet and credible. It's difficult with silly season kicking in to justify it to people also.
What do you tell people and how do you deal with people trying to encourage you to 'just have one'. I'd be interested to hear all suggestions.
