What is this costing you?
Not the vague sense that it's "probably a bit much." The real number. In money, and in the weeks of your life you won't get back. Two minutes, no signup.
Most people know roughly what they drink. Almost nobody's added up what it costs, this week, this year, and over the rest of a life. Fill in a typical week below and we'll show you all three.
A typical week, added up
Prices are UK averages, edit them to match what you pay.
The NHS low-risk guideline is not to regularly drink more than 14 units a week, spread across three or more days. This tool is for your own reflection, not a medical assessment. Read the guidance at nhs.uk/live-well/alcohol-advice.
USD, EUR and AUD totals use researched local average drink prices, not just a currency conversion. Every other currency converts the UK prices above at today's exchange rate, since researching real local pricing for all 35 currencies isn't something we can responsibly claim to have done.
Anything else that tends to come with it?
Drinking rarely happens on its own. A heavy night can come with a taxi, a takeaway, cigarettes, or other choices you wouldn't normally make. If you want the most honest picture of what this is really costing you, name them here too. Nothing you type is saved or sent anywhere, it's only added to the totals below.
Your week, added up
That's this week's pattern, repeated for 12 months. Most people are surprised the first time they see it as one number rather than a few pounds at a time.
Now, the rest of your life
Every square below is one week of an average life. Based on what you drink now, we'll also show how many of those weeks research suggests could be at risk.
What continuing to drink would cost you

If you've already stopped drinking, or you're living alcohol free, that money hasn't gone anywhere. It's still there, waiting to be pointed at something else.
Life expectancy for the United Kingdom is estimated from the UK Office for National Statistics national life tables (2022–2024), adjusted for current age and sex. For every other region, it's the 2023 figure from the United Nations World Population Prospects 2024, the UN's official population estimates. The years potentially at risk are estimated from Wood et al., The Lancet, 2018, a study of 599,912 drinkers across 83 studies, the research behind the UK's current 14-unit guideline. All of it is a population average, not a prediction for you personally. UK source · UN source · Lancet source.

So, what now?
You've already seen what this could cost you. But it isn't only money. You can spend years thinking you've got a thousand problems, until you get ill. Then you've only got one: how to get better.
This isn't a magic pill. Stopping drinking doesn't make life easier by itself. If alcohol's been softening feelings you didn't want to feel, taking it away doesn't make them disappear. They come back louder, because the thing muting them is gone. That's not wrong, it's what happens next. Learning to sit with it instead of drinking it away takes time.
That's the real work. Not just managing what you feel, but pointing the energy and clarity that comes with it at the life you actually want. Built on purpose, not managed day to day.
If any of that landed, you don't need to have it all figured out. You just need to make a start, and if you want to learn more first, that's what the button's for.
