This is one of the things I am thinking I should look at doing, easing back on the alcohol.

I am your typical binge drinker, only on a Friday or Saturday night, and only when something is on (work function, major sporting event etc)

I want to be able to go out and have a blast, but without the need to drink alcohol. You get to a stage where wiping out all the next day just seems like such a waste. There is also the large cost involved, it's so easy to go through $150 (Aussie money) in a night. Also I am sure the health affects aren't too good either.

I guess my biggest issue is, I am worried I won't have as good a time if I don't drink. I am also not the most confident person when it comes to approaching people (be it male or females) that I don't know when I have had a couple of drinks. I know this is a pretty poor way to think, but it seems to be one of those things that society drums into you from so early on.

I guess the best thing to do is just give it a go and see where it leads?
