### 5/5 — Dry January

*2026-01-22*

I'm so grateful for Dry January app. App has helped me to challenge myself to stop drinking, and think to myself how drinking really affected my wellbeing. I'm sleeping much better. I'm falling asleep faster without waking up using the bathroom often like I was when I was drinking.
