99% sober, or dry By default, is a label for those of us who are fed up drinking on autopilot and want to control our relationship with alcohol, but aren’t quite ready to shut the door on it completely.
It’s part of the wider trend of mindful drinking and the sober curious. People going “99% sober” or “dry by default” are those who rarely drink, but make the odd exception. It can make sense for those of us who don’t want to put pressure on ourselves to give up completely. Instead of restricting yourself with a ‘drinker’ or ‘non-drinker’ label, you place yourself somewhere in between.
