Abstinence is the complete avoidance of a substance. Moderation is the practice of consuming a substance in controlled amounts. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Abstinence is the complete avoidance of a substance, so if someone abstains from alcohol, they are not consuming it and therefore cannot moderate it. One can choose to abstain or moderate their alcohol consumption.

Abstinence and moderation are 2 different ways to approach substance use. Abstinence is complete avoidance, moderation is controlled consumption. They can't be done at the same time.

That's correct. Two things can be related without being mutually exclusive. They can overlap or complement each other. If you have any specific questions or concerns, please let me know, and I'll do my best to clarify.
