Have you been drinking more due to the quarantine and subsequently slowed down?

Alcohol consumption is probably at an all-time high for obvious reasons.

Did you find yourself taking in too much sauce? More importantly, did you realize it and decide to cut it down?

In the spring when we were all ‘locked down’, we definitely drank more, but we were working at home and didn’t have to log in at a certain time. Since online school ended in May, I’ve been going to the office and when school started, getting up to take the kids to school (started in August 5 days/week) so it’s been less since then.

Oh definitely. Still going but working on cutting down. Figure it’ll be the New Years resolution to get back to normal drinking

Working from home has dramatically increased my intake. It’s easier to drink when you don’t have to shower, get dressed, and then commute to the office.

At this pace I’ll die of liver failure. Good thing my death certificate will say I died from Covid-19. It’ll save my family a lot of shame.

Drinking more. MIL died the end of March. Daughter died the end of May very unexpectedly. Today my closest uncle died unexpectedly. So yes I'm slamming them down. I've had 12 or more BL and can still type

I had been mostly sober for a few months at the start. Boredom won. I have 4 or 5 drinks a night and more on weekends. It hasn't really affected my personal or professional life but I hate the fact that every day when I get home from work there's a battle that I lose. I wake up disgusted with myself.

I just usually stick to some beer.

No more and no less. Regular beer schedule for me.

Work days, not so much but on my off days, i definitely am enjoying road beers and beers while doing crap around the house

Actually drinking a lot less. Probably because I would mostly drink in social settings.

Yes. Slacked off for a few weeks but back to a high level. Have not seen my family since the first week of January. Thanks COVID.

I'd say more days of drinking, but only a few drinks per day. So maybe a beer or two from Thursday-Sun.

The weekend drinking has definitely gone down since I haven't been able to go out much or with freinds, but picked back up with Football and such.

Between covid and South Carolina football, I'm lucky to be alive.
