The rise of the sober curious: Is alcohol really worth it?
Peer pressure can be one of the toughest barriers to overcome when it comes to going sober, but times are changing.
A hot topic of conversation among my friends at the moment is alcohol. But we’re not talking about our favourite cocktails or a new bar opening, instead, we’re asking: ‘Is it really worth it?’
Most of us never drink at home, we could easily go weeks without alcohol, and we’re not secretly sculling spirits unbeknownst to our loved ones. So while we don’t have what you might call a drinking problem, many of us are examining our drinking. For some, it’s because they’re sick of the hangovers, or how it’s impacting their productivity, and others say they’re just sick of feeling down in the days after a binge.
