Strategies for responsible drinking include setting limits, pacing oneself, and being mindful of alcohol consumption.

To keep drinking and behavior under control, an individual can:
1. Set a limit on the number of drinks they will have in a given time period.
2. Pace themselves by drinking slowly and alternating alcoholic beverages with water or non-alcoholic drinks.
3. Be mindful of their alcohol consumption by paying attention to how much they are drinking and how it is affecting their behavior and judgment.

To promote responsible attitudes and drinking behavior in others, people can utilize the following strategies:
1. Lead by example by demonstrating responsible drinking behavior and encouraging others to do the same.
2. Educate others about the potential risks and consequences of excessive drinking, and the benefits of moderation.
3. Support and encourage friends and family members to make responsible choices when it comes to alcohol consumption, and intervene if necessary to prevent excessive drinking.
