If you’re a Dry January dropout, but you’re drinking within acceptable limits, calling it quits before the month is up isn't the end of the world.

; that group reports a 17 percent spike in frequency . “We know that when people drink at home, they tend to drink larger measures and more as they lose the effect of pacing their drinking with others,” Ian Hamilton, associate professor at University of York in the United Kingdom, told TODAY Health.

Dr. Richard de Visser, reader in Psychology at Brighton & Sussex Medical School in the United Kingdom, who is involved with research about Dry January’s impact, said that typically, around 70% of people who sign up for Dry January manage to abstain from alcohol for the month.

If you fall into the dry-ish January camp, don’t beat yourself up. “I believe that Dry January succeeds, even if the drinker does not keep it up for the whole month,” Dr. H. Westley Clark, dean’s executive professor of Public Health at Santa Clara University in Santa Clara, California, told TODAY, explaining that it’s a chance for personal assessment.
