Strategies for Reducing Drinking
• Keep track of how much you drink
• Measure your drinks and know how much you are drinking
• Set goals for drinking (days per week, amount per day)
• Fill time with alternative activities that do not involve alcohol
• Stock-up on non-alcohol beverages that you enjoy
• Avoid “triggers” that make you lose control over drinking
• Make a plan for how you will respond to triggers that arise
• Have a “no” response ready to go in case you are offered a drink
