"I am enjoying being able to wake up on a Sunday and go indoor rock climbing or go for a bush walk with friends — minus that seedy feeling."
"I realised I’d been relying on alcohol for confidence that was always there without it."
"It's amazing how much more time you have on your hands and what you can get done when you're not drinking."
VIDEO PROJECTThe next part of the ReThink the Drink project will include videos featuring women sharing their personal stories. These stories can be about your personal experiences with drinking, how it has affected your life and what strategies you have used to reduce the amount you drink. Alternatively, your story may be about your thoughts on why you think lesbian, bisexual and queer women (trans and gender diverse inclusive) drink at higher levels than heterosexual women.What we know is that sharing our personal stories can be very empowering for not only ourselves but for other women too. If you would like more information about getting involved in the ReThink the Drink video project contact rachel.cook@thorneharbour.orgIf you would prefer to share your written story see below click here Share Your Story
