There are many different aspects and concerns with a drinking problem. Health is only one of them. Of course, without good health, we have nothing. I found that my health was most definitely a factor while drinking. However, every other aspect of my life was affected as well. My social life, my personal life, my financial situation, my mental health, which, of course, is another aspect of health. I hope you continue to evaluate your drinking and explore what you would like to do about it. Please remember while drinking, it never gets any better. It only gets worse. The only way for life to truly improve is to completely stop drinking, forever.
