I know I definitely did. I really had to cut back a lot. It was feeling problematic. But as I started getting back out into society (I happily isolated from everyone) and wanting to socialize over beers or cocktails, so many of my friends have quit altogether. I assume many due to their drinking during quarantine.

Yup. Quit during pandemic. Will be 3 years sans alcohol at the end of this month. Is my health better? Yes. Does it make socializing harder? Absolutely.
