Here are the questions I'm interested in:
1. How old were you when drinking became a problem for you?
Started drinking at age 19 and by 22-23 there had been a number of blackouts. Was arrested for public drunkenness and sideswiped a parked car driving home in another instance. Looking back all the signs were there by the age of 23.
2. How old were you when you quit drinking for good?
35
3. What, if anything, did you do or experience that motivated you to quit for good?
Drinking no longer "worked" and I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. AA cliché to be sure but that about sums it up for me.
