HI Jillian
The best thing I got out of Alan Carr was to stop and examine what I wanted that drink to do - was I scared, angry, fed up, bored...?
Was it a reasonable expectation that drinking would change things positively for me and get me what I want - without having to deal with negative consequences?
If we're honest, the answer for all of us should be no.
So, how else might I/you deal with fear anger boredom or whatever in a positive way without drinking?
