I always remember when I was trying to moderate, I was so desperate to do it. If there was one wish, one wish I could have in my whole life, it would have been to be able to moderate.
Ever tried to cut back on drinking only to find it’s more trouble than it’s worth? Vic and Lucy from 'Sober Awkward' know the feeling all too well. In this episode, they revisit their own attempts to moderate alcohol intake and why it ultimately led them to choose full sobriety.
They recount their experiences with humorous anecdotes, like trying to drink a glass of water between each cocktail or limiting booze to weekends, only to end up back at square one.
