If You’re Drinking Too Much Too Often Rethink the Drink

 

It’s Your Life It’s Your Time

Drinking is this seemingly innocuous guy who sits down by my side on vacation or out to dinner and whispers in my ear

“See, look at them. They drink way more than you do and they get to drink. You’re so dramatic, such a buzzkill. You think you’re so important. You think you really have a problem. You don’t have a problem. Just relax already and have one.”

And I look around that restaurant and I start to believe him. Then a week later I tell myself I won’t do it that day and eventually I do.

He comes to me and then oh so gently holds my face one inch from the surface of the water. He doesn’t shove me way down into a rock bottom, but just enough for me to not get air. It’s time for that to stop.

Someone shared a thought with me that I will remember this time around

“I am not weak because I can’t drink like others. I am strong because I don’t.”
