  I am 45 and to be honest I quit exactly 30 days ago, before these 30 days I used to be a heavy super heavy drinker, and what has helped was to confront my ignorance over this topic, for real I do not remember being like a single day without drinking, or smoking cigarettes or using drugs for almost at least 15 years continuously 😖…. However at least in my case, having focus on changing habits, starting with meditation as 1st thing in my mornings at 5am, quitting those places and “friends” that I used to go or be with,changed my nutrition, even what I consumed on social media plus a deep sense of respect, humbleness and willingness to appreciate my life a gift, have given me the power of believing that I can really enjoy life without being intoxicated.!!! I know it’s early to say that I am not dependent however the journey commences with the 1st step which is what I have done this 1st month !!!<br><br>Thanks for the inspiration, love Science and I am so thankful for your work and content, keep it up and blessings, I don’t know you, but you must know that you are helping me tons along the said journey, thank you.!!! 🎉

  It makes sense to include in alcohol advertisements all of the nasty side effects like pharmaceutical drugs show on ads for those substances. For example, show a bloody car wreck for impaired driving, show neglected or abused spouses and children, show a person losing their job, in the hospital with alcohol related illnesses, the unwanted pregnancy or sexual encounter that results is STD transmission, or humiliation, show a drunk person acting like an idiot in public, getting arrested, and all the rest.

  I am not a heavy drinker but stopped alcohol for 60 days now and I have lost 7kg, having the best sleep ever, my resting heart rate is 10 beats lower(15% lower), eyes whiter and brighter, blood pressure lower, mental clarity and overall I am a lot more positive.

  I&apos;m 3 weeks sober. It&apos;ll take at least a year to reverse my fatty liver, pregnant looking belly and other negative effects from alcohol. But that&apos;s the cost for being an alcoholic since the pandemic
