If it’s your first Dry January® challenge, the week may have started off in a cold, bleak ‘first Monday in January’ kind of way. So maybe it’d be a good time to hear some reassuring words from those who’ve been there before. We trawled through the archives to find top tips from Dry January® participants from years gone by.
“Day 2 and I’m drinking tea as if my life depended on it.”
“Day 2 Dry! I am so comforted in finding other people who share my habits, feelings, and challenges - you guys get it! It makes me feel less alone.”
“The secret is to keep very busy in the evenings for the first few days.”
“End of Day 2. Ate a huge plate of spaghetti tonight instead of drinking.”
“When I decided to stop, this was not forever, just for the day, and then the next, and then the next. That thought really helped me in the early days.”
If you haven't signed up to Dry January® yet, it’s not too late!
