- Why do I drink alcohol?
From stereotypes and excuses, to the underlying issues and feelings that drive us to drink to excess. How one drink becomes too many. I tell a bit of my story and how I have changed since stopping.

I was a heavy drinker for 40 years and I quit. My secret? I stopped buying alcohol and pouring it down my throat.
Did you also stop hanging around people who drink?
@@Jack-zj1ug I don’t hang around with people well except my wife. I don’t care if people drink alcohol or don’t eat meat or whatever. It’s a personal choice that doesn’t affect me so I don’t worry about it.
Thank you for sharing your story.. I am searching for answers in how I should help my son.. everything you said I see happening to him. I had a talk with him last week and told him this has to be his choice.. and I am always here to support him and pray for him.
I published a video this week on how to help an alcoholic but it seems you're already handling it well. I hope you and your son can resolve all that you need to.
Childhiid trauma?? Yes, yes, and yes!!
Wise and true words. Thank you sir. Good to see the cat :)
Brilliant you kicked the alcohol, takes a lot of courage to do that. And I'm sorry for your loss. Life is rich enough without any of those form of crutches. 🙂
Thank you for your comment.
My story as well. Thanks
Thos resonates with me
Undiagnosed neutologucal conditions like adult ADHD and problrm drinking go hand in hamd...Trust me i know..Good video mate u done really well..I just done 10 weels then relapsed, want to be where u are now. My ptoblen is bonge drinking and weekend cocaine use...Bever drunk in week but used to take me 2 days to recover sometiemes , viscious circle..im 52 now felt great for 10 weeks but then thought i was ok , and m8ssed social sudd but if u can do it then i can do it..Can u do video on your friends not wanting u to quit etc
Same here; emotional regulation issues and awful gloomy depression plays a huge part in my drinking. I think that's where AA is so simplistic; it's WHY people drink. Why? There's no big man in the sky about to save me.
I don't know haw people drink the alcohol i try different drink then never drink after that the test wos horrible
I was drinking 2 24 cases of beer a day . I have a problem riding horse racing drugging resources so I drink a lot because I love horses I got sober for 20 years. Got divorced now I have 2 to 3 beers ignore my limit. I just have a hard time around so work for me. I will never work for anybody. You don’t turn me into a drinker tracks in Rogan resources
I drink therefore I am
in vino veritas..... You let your demons run your life. Pathetic.
There’s an old saying: want to stop 🛑 being an alcoholic, stop 🛑 drinking. The most ridiculous “disease “ ever.
Quitting any coping mechanism is not that easy.
@@bobsiddoway just another excuse by a feeble minded person to justify their bad behaviour.
@@OptimisticMansion-yl1wq If only.
People far braver, more accomplished, and more self-disciplined than you or I will ever be have struggled mightily with booze.
@murkartik it is excuse driven
@@paintsilj You are excuse driven.
STOP AVOIDING REALITY AND RESPONSIBILITY. THAT IS THE REASON MOST PEOPLE DRINK, DO DRUGS, OR ARE ADDICTED TO SEX OR FOOD!!!
