The simple answer is no. Drinking alone, by itself, doesn’t mean you’re an alcoholic. But if you’re concerned about drinking alone, or with the role alcohol plays in your life, then it’s worth monitoring your drinking. This means tracking how much you drink, when you drink, and why. As you’re doing this, it’s also worth considering whether you’re drinking to deal with negative emotions such as stress, anxiety, or boredom. Self-medicating with alcohol can lead to problematic drinking, even if it isn't at that point right now.
There is nothing wrong with drinking alone if you don't believe it's affecting your life. However, if you find yourself drinking alone to escape something, then it’s well worth finding people and activities that support you in a healthier manner. Reframe's collection of activities help you develop skills to deal with cravings by practicing mindfulness. Our 24/7 private, anonymous Forum community is filled with people just like you! They’re always available to provide the support and encouragement you need.
Inside our #1 rated alcohol reduction app, you’ll find a drink tracker that also keeps a tally of the calories you’ve saved by drinking less (and the dollars you’ve saved, too!). Armed with this information, you can start to make an action plan for drinking less with Reframe’s help. You’ll also have access to a 24/7 Forum for chatting with other people like you, meeting with our licensed coaches, and attending our daily Zoom meetings for sharing and mutual encouragement.
