    I have never abused or being addicted to alcohol but have seen friends die and others lose everything, ex British Forces and BBC employee tge drinking culture in both organisations is massive there are so many functioning alcoholics and everything revolves round alcohol.
    I missed out on many jobs as I would not be part of the “Drinking crew” but no regrets. People get over the first month free of alcohol and you will be fine and your life will improve massively. Your kids your marriage your health. Go Sober.
