Breaking bad habits is something many people struggle with their entire lifetime. If you’ve ever tried to quit smoking then I’m sure you can relate.
We all have our vices but if yours is an addiction to online shopping, partaking in workplace gossip, or if you can’t stop counting how many ‘likes’ you get on Facebook or Instagram, then the time is now to bite the bullet and stop.
Here are ten bad habits you need to give up today.
BINGE DRINKING
According to the Annual Alcohol Poll 2017 conducted by the Foundation For Alcohol Research Education, 44% of adults in Australia drink to get drunk, which is up from 37% the previous year.
If you’re a male who regularly drinks in excess of seven standard drinks in a night or you’re a woman consuming over five standard drinks, then you should really be thinking about the consequences this has for your health and your relationships.
Learning to drink in moderation isn’t easy but you can start by teaching yourself what exactly constitutes a standard drink. If you’re really struggling with a binge drinking problem, there are lots of resources out there to help you quit.
