Alcohol Explained

by William Porter

By far the greatest benefit of stopping drinking is to get back to your peak physical and mental health. People simply do not appreciate how much our mental resilience is tied to our physical health. Hangovers, lack of sleep, and the physical degradation generally leave us feeling unable to cope with life. After only a few days of stopping, your quality of life improves dramatically, and it continues to improve for some time. Another major benefit is to take control of your life again, to regain the lost self-respect, to know that you have solved the biggest problem in your life. Very quickly your physical and mental well-being returns, leaving you mentally and physically stronger and better equipped to deal with the stresses and strains of life generally. This alone makes stopping well worthwhile. As your physical and mental health return, you will feel better than you ever did when you were drinking. But there are numerous other benefits of stopping that all add up.
