I quit drinking because I was sick from drinking so much for so long. Sick and shaking every day only feeling "normal" after a few shots.
I was tired of being a falling down drunk with constant cuts and bruises all over. After I fell backwards hitting my head on the toilet and knocking myself out cold, splitting my scalp I said to myself, "This has got to stop."
I kept saying that to myself and a month later I was in rehab. Haven't fallen down in 15 months.
