ABOUT THIS QUIT DRINKING BLOG

“There are three types of drinkers - people who are happy, people who are sad and people who are confused to which category they belong.” – Aliyah Arsiton

Introduction

You may want to quit alcohol now, as in NOW. Or you can suffer the consequences forever. I will tell you all the reasons for this appeal, using this quit drinking blog.

Everyone who drinks alcohol, whether it is an occasional drinking, for social gatherings, or regular intake in any given time, can become a victim of alcohol abuse. Furthermore, people who borrow courage and strength from alcoholic beverages and spirits, to overcome dark situations, are going out on a limb. The bomb could explode within a short period of time for some individuals and will take a while for others, but consequences will definitely find their way. Although a person believes that he got his drinking in his hand, the truth remains intact - everyone who holds a rocks glass or wine tumbler and imbibe the content is all doomed to failure. Not to mention the fact that this continuous, normal and make-believe “controlled” drinking behavior can lead to alcohol addiction that is a universal occurrence.

Each of us knows that alcohol can string anyone along to great deals of troubles. Even those individuals who understand they need to control their consumption and are fully focused to carry out the plan are candidates for disruption, in one way or another, and are apt to abuse alcohol. Even if some people recognize their limitations and entirely know when enough is enough, it will come to a certain point that they can’t resist the temptation – they will get drunk, will be unmanageable and will be liable for the damages of their actions.

This Blog is for People Who Drinks to Celebrate

This is one of the functions of this blog. This quit drinking blog is designed for people, who use and abuse alcohol for fun and excitement, to clearly show them how to recognize and realize all the undeniably negative factors and catastrophic effects linked with drinking alcohol, regardless of the quantity, the quality and the potency of the booze; the intensity of happiness the drinker is experiencing and the level of ecstasy alcohol provides to the drinker. No matter how much courage to control a person has, he may soon get caught to the trap and become one of the casualties. Despite the high level of contentment or happiness a person is contemplating, I believe that he is a potential target of alcohol, and every one of us is under the same possibility, no exemption. This reality is enough to dictate us that everyone should really quit drinking alcohol, or avoid alcohol in any way.

We all have the knowledge that an alcoholic beverage contains the substance ethanol, a by-product of fermenting sugars from yeasts. Ethanol is a psychoactive drug that affects the central nervous system, particularly the brain functions. This chemical provides “euphoria” to certain parts of the brain, thus, the brain will constantly clamor for this rewarding effect in order to feel good. If a person is exposed to this practice in a regular, continuous basis, it will eventually lead to addiction, which means that the person will become dependent to the substance and abstaining from it can cause withdrawal symptoms and other underlying effects.

We are also aware that alcohol, when taken in large amounts, can intoxicate anyone and can disrupt the balance of one’s physical and mental faculties or behavior.  Alcohol belongs to the list of depressants that makes an individual feel depressed and less active even if the real goal when drinking is to celebrate life or merely to seek creature comforts. Therefore, we reach the conclusion that we really need to quit drinking alcohol in order to prevent the aforementioned circumstances.

An individual is likely to abuse alcohol if he is in a good mood. A person who is happy is in the highest peak. He doesn't want to end this good feeling. He sure wants to maintain his or her happiness by drinking more alcohol especially if booze is already into his or her system. This is due to the fact that he is convinced that alcohol can put in some extra weight to the happiness he is already experiencing. He is also prone to drink up against his or her limitations because of this. Now, let’s try to fathom the next chapter that will take place if this is not addressed properly.

Everyone has the right to enjoy life, everyone can crack open a bottle, celebrate special occasions and be merry once in a while. Every person in this planet can paint the town red and get pleasure from the booze if they wish to. Everyone can also drink every single hour of every single day and can use and abuse alcohol to overcome fears and worries. 

But every human being also has the right to enjoy a tranquil environment, free from people getting out of hand. A mother or a father has the right to enjoy parenthood, free from juvenile delinquency brought about by alcohol abuse. Every child has the right to have a happy family, free from domestic violence due to intoxication. Every passenger in a car should be safe and secure, free from drivers who are under the influence. This world needs dependable civilization, free from dangerous drunks and irresponsible people who assume they can manage their drinking behaviors. This planet does not deserve inhabitants who only think of themselves and their drinking spree.

This Blog is for People Who Drinks to Cope Up with Sadness 

In addition, the following quit drinking articles are written with the intention of illustrating to people, who choose to cover up their negative emotions by drowning themselves with alcohol, that the substance has the ability to further push them down the drain, which will definitely promote additional destruction and distraction.

For instance, if a person is dealing with personal or domestic problem, and begins to pour alcohol down his or her throat to calm down or get back into composure, he might drink more than what he intends to consume because of the sorrow that the personal or domestic problem is causing him or her. No one can be in control if the strength of alcohol is intentionally used to deal with stress and depression. No one is in control when the spirit of alcohol actually possesses someone’s logical faculty. No one can be in total power to stop drinking if the energy of alcohol is more powerful than what a person holds.

This website is created with all these in mind. The purpose is to give a warning to people who don’t seem to notice the effects of alcohol in their lives. The goal is to encourage others to quit drinking alcohol for the simple reason – alcohol has the power to destroy. Period.

Admit it or not, drinking alcohol (whether it involves moderate or “controlled” consumption) can influence a person, and it has affected you, more or less. It causes butterfly effect that is applicable to both you and your loved ones.

Whatever make-up you’re wearing, happy or sad - you are likely to abuse alcohol, get intoxicated and suffer the aftermath even if you try all your best to do otherwise. The best way to deal with this is to prevent you from starting – that is to eliminate the “triggers” that influence you to drink and abuse alcohol in the first place.

This Blog Provides Articles that Provides Tips on How to Quit Drinking Alcohol

This quit drinking blog also has the goal of providing tips and techniques to eliminate “triggers” that activate the starting point of the drinking. There are reasons behind your drinking problem; there are harmful roots that need to be removed for you to enjoy the nutritious soil of the ground to where you are standing right now. I believe that a pound of prevention is always better than a pound of cure.

You may find it hard to quit drinking alcohol because you have no ability over alcohol now because it shattered your points of view but you sure have the ability to identify the triggers and get rid of the roots that may have caused your drinking. Quitting alcohol will be easier if you recognize the point where the fault lies down and address it properly.

These quit drinking articles can also be helpful in terms of self-development, enhancing coping mechanism and handling stressful situations. Nevertheless, the blog’s interconnected articles can help in preventing damages that are possible to happen and prevent further destruction if there are damages that already exist. The main reason for quitting alcohol is damage control. This blog is created to help control the damages in a person’s life when it comes to irresponsible drinking and abuse of alcohol. There is a need to quit because there is a need to put an end to the existing damages. And people who have realized the damages that drinking and abusing has brought forth into their lives know they need to quit drinking alcohol and put an end to the habit before it completely destroy their lives.

On other topic, this blog is NOT intended for those who are suffering from alcoholism – those people who are undergoing chronic and severe condition, though some quit drinking articles can help them manage their lives and taper off their alcohol consumption.

Alcoholics should immediately seek medical advice and undergo treatment in order to recover. All recommendations, tips and steps enumerated in all quit drinking articles herein cannot replace medical treatments, more so, cannot be used as medication. 

This blog is NOT a generalization. While I did my best to simplify the thoughts and terms in all articles, I also tried to be more specific and situational. Everyone is unique, and has different situations that need individualized approach to achieve the same result. While these quit drinking tips may be applicable to some individuals, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is suited for all individuals.
