Wow! I didn't anticipate so many responses so quickly!
Anyways, I think I will not drink for a while. The last time was New Years and I don't think it had any effect as long as I keep it in moderation. I know everyone is different and I don't want to risk bringing about any mania. Drinking more than just a couple definitely brought on depression for me, but that was before taking my meds (lithium and clonazepam).
I think I'll just drink very occasionally, though I regret telling my friend last night that I am now a teetotaler!
I think saying that is more about a feeling of self-superiority perhaps. "I'm cool because I don't drink at all!" But now I feel more like a hypocrite...
Thanks!
