Ellie Atkins - #AlcoholAwarenessWeek
Alcohol can sometimes plays a centre-stage role in our lives. It’s promoted as we watch our favourite sports, advertised as we travel to work and strategically placed in our favourite films and TV shows. It’s there when we celebrate, commiserate and when we’re just trying to cope.
Yet alcohol is harming our health and wellbeing on a daily basis, from the quality of the sleep we’re getting, to our relationships with those we love. And each year, thousands of people experience long-term health problems as a result of the alcohol they drink, or die from alcohol-related causes.
But alcohol never impacts people in isolation. So this Alcohol Awareness Week, we’ll be exploring exactly what we mean by ‘alcohol harm’ and challenging the stereotype of alcohol as an ‘individual’s problem’. We want to get the country talking about the role that alcohol plays in our society, and what it means to families, communities, health workers and those in our emergency services.

    I started drinking at an early age to block out my childhood. I came up through the care system and progressed into prison. There was no ADHD or ADD diagnosis back in the 70's. I was just written off as a naughty child and disposed of. I've struggled all my life, and never sought help in my adult life. I knew alcohol was destroying me but i couldn't do anything about it. I'm 56 now and stopped drinking 6 months ago. It's been the hardest thing I've ever undertaken. I'm not out of the woods yet but I'm determined.

    I want my future relationship to be not drinking at all. Like Hugh, I'm in my early 60s and drunk all my adult life. Currently I've been alcohol free for around 3 months and want to spend the rest of what's left of my life, without alcohol. Already after 3 months AF, I already can see so many positives that I can't really see myself going back to drinking. I sleep so well now, have loads more money, no longer have to cringe looking back at what I said or how I behaved when I'd drunk too much, the list is endless. There are lots of physical benefits to being AF too such as better skin, losing weight, being more alert, being kinder, again, the list goes on and on.
