Why should I stop drinking?

I personally think that moderate drinking is fine for now and then, even though I only drink 3 to 4 times a year because I'm aiming for physical goals. Let me tell you why you should not drink excessively instead. Okay, let me tell you something that you already know. Alcohol slows down your fat-burning rate in your body even to the point it stops completely. Because although we recognize the alcohol as the "fun-party-drink" our body sees alcohol as a mere poison. When you drink, the body will move their focus on removing this poison out of your body, that is why all other department that needs a lot of energy to work properly like the brain will have a temporary drop on its performance resulting in immoral behaviors and thought patterns in your end. Because the body is working hard to remove this poison, even during your sleep where the body suppose to repair your body (Muscles, organs, hormone chemicals to strengthen your immune system) They don't have the time to do so because they are making this poison removal a priority. Resulting you on this so called "Hangover" where you feel like you didn't get enough sleep even when you slept for 10 hours, because technically you didn't sleep that much. And as you may already know, when you are sleep-deprived it affects the whole day. Your moods will jump all over the place, your stress hormone spikes up, resulting in weight gain, weak immune system, high blood pressure and so on. Yes it affects how you interact with people, therefore your relationships Yes, it will affect your productivity and work performance. Yes, it will affect and change everything in your life.

Because you are so much better then that. You have got your whole life ahead of you . You are loved and you are precious

Its absolutely fine to have a drink every now and then but if you already feel awful and depressed a lot of the time, it really wont help your feelings and may cause you to act out more. unless you are surrounded by people that understand your feelings and that you trust it is probably best to stay away from it until you feel more like yourself. just to be safe. a lot of people when depressed can start to rely on alchohol to get them through the bad time but then it is very difficult to get away from that habit too

Sober life is the most pure, truthful life you can live. Being honest with yourself, taking care of yourself. Loving those around you. Recognizing your worth enough to realize you deserve more than what you have given yourself. When I stopped drinking, my life flourished.

There is no one reason why anyone should stop drinking and it all depends on the person in question which in this case is you. You might want to ask yourself what the pros and cons are of drinking or the pros and cons of not drinking are. It is always up to what you think is best and what you think is right for yourself moving forward.

Sometimes, making a pros/cons list can help brainstorm solutions to questions posed such as this one. Every individual has their own reasons for quitting drinking, however, the most important reasons are going to be your own.

Hey there! Sorry you are dealing with alcoholism or certain aspects of it. I can give you multiple reasons including ones about your health and your loved ones, but only you can really answer your question. If you're here looking for a reason to stop, then that should be a reason enough. Take a look back at the things that have happened to you because you had one too many drinks. And if that doesn't convince you take a look at the relationship you have with your loved ones and try to look what it might become if you continue down this path. If it's worth it,by all means take another shot, if it's not then there's your why.

Deciding if drinking is a problem for you is very personal. At twenty, I chose to stop because my life was out of control and I felt hopeless and isolated, even in the midst of gatherings of friends. I wasn’t myself because my drinking made half my decisions. Taking a step away from that lifestyle was hard. I sought support and found a group of people who loved me until I could love myself because they knew that road well and had gone before me. Sharing my struggles with people who had lived similarly helped me find my feet and begin a new chapter where I was in control and did not feel like I needed alcohol to pull me through. There have still been times of emotional upheaval that draw my mind to a drink as a form of relief, but I take a step back, find a quiet moment, and look at my motivation for wanting (or thinking I want) that drink. Giving myself an extra pause for thought allows me to identify and begin to address the actual problem without allowing alcohol to take control and decide for me. It is a hard road but you don’t have to walk it alone.

Drinking can cause a lot of problems to your body physically and mentally. It can cause very serious damage to your organs and it can make you addicted to drinking. Once you get addicted it can be very, very hard to stop. Drinking can mess with your brain and make you do things that you might not want to do but do to the alcohol you did do it. Drinking is not so bad as long as you don't do it excessively or repeatedly over and over again. As long as you are aware of how much you drink it will be easier to stop.

Ultimately, only you can answer this question. When I stopped drinking, I woke up one night to realize that I was sick and tired of being sick and tired and I had to change something. I didn't know how to do it, and I didn't know where to go to find it, but I knew I wanted to live a different life. The repercussions of my drinking were starting to sneak up on me, both physically and legally. I realized all the ways my actions were negatively affecting my life and those around me. Even though I had completely isolated myself away from my family and disconnected from any friends I had in the past, I was still hurting the people who cared about me. That said, even though other people were being affected, I found out the ONLY person I could stop drinking for was myself, and it had to be 100% my decision. 6.5 years later, it was the best decision I ever made, and I'm actually grateful for all the repercussions I had to face. When I reflect on them now, I realize that they are the reason I'm able to live the life I do today.

By drinking, you could be limiting your full potential. Not only could you be limiting yourself, but you are putting unnecessary strife on your loved ones as well as yourself. To stop drinking would be the first stem in your journey of your new life. You should stop drinking in order to relieve your family and friends as well as yourself. I know it must be very difficult to stop drinking for yourself, so it might be easier to view it as something you are doing for your loved ones. Remember, there are so many people here for you each and every step of the way on your journey.

Drinking is super super super unhealthy for your body. Plus it ultimately doesn't help you in the long run. I personally have used drinking to soothe the pain you could say. I truly believe that there are better options than this. Maybe try reaching out to somebody talking about how your feelings and why you drink may save you from becoming addicted. If you are drinking to help your pain you should really talk to somebody before your drinking turns into addiction or even worse. A drink every once in a while won't hurt you but excessive drinking will. Much love to you🥰

Alcohol is like someone who cheers you up for a moment and then backstabs you. Drinking makes you suffer more and more, waking up every morning will be a nightmare and it will not stop. Giving up alcohol will be hard but you will have a very good chance to a better life, you will be able to wake up without the terrible emotional pain, your body will feel better, you will be able to do things again and you will be able to make real friends, those who love you and not just say it because they are drunk too.

There are many reasons one might consider stopping drinking, but only you can decide what the right reasons are for you. Some reasons a person might want to stop drinking are that drinking can lead to physical health problems, it can cause physical and emotional dependence, and may decrease mental and emotional well being in the long term. Other people find that drinking has a negative impact on their work life or family life, or that it leads to difficulties in their relationships. In some instances, certain decisions made while drinking may lead to legal issues. If you feel drinking is negatively impacting your life, or the lives of those around you, in any way, it may hint at a reason you might want to stop drinking.

I think that if you are at a point where you are thinking about stopping, there is usually a reason that you are thinking about that. For me, my reason was there was a time when I was drinking and my family noticed and were being hurt because I was being very belligerent, and they were concerned for my health. I finally agreed that I had a problem when I woke up one morning and learned that I had ruined a close friendship of mine. While I was intoxicated, I had said very hurtful things, and done things that I sincerely regret. For me, that is why I stopped drinking, and I hope that this story shows that your answer may be different, but eventually drinking gets to a point where you hurt the people around you, and then yourself.

Because it can benefit your mental health, physical health, overall well being, skin. You will have much more energy to do actual work than worrying about having analgesics for hangovers. While drinking may seem like a great temporary escape from everyday problems, it actually causes more problems in the long run. You will also end up saving more money as if you calculate the total money you wasted on alcohol, you’ll actually realise how you could’ve used it for something so much better. Not to mention, the health complications it causes include a much increased risk for colon cancer, a leaky intestine.

Drinking numbs emotions and makes us not aware of how it inhibites us. A lot of times excessive drinking is like a band aid on a flesh wound. Not really solving the problems or things stressing you out. If you use drinking to feel happy maybe evaluate why you need to have a drink to feel happier. It also may affect your health, and cause to have more health problems and die earlier than those who don't drink or only have one on occasion. Plus on a mental scale alcohol is a downer causing things like depression and anxiety to pop back up. Physically it can cause weight gain and health issues like I mentioned before. It can cause quicker aging, problems with sleeping, issues with mental health and more. While one glass of something like red wine may be healthy , anything in excess should be avoided.

Drinking has an effect an all aspects of our life, whether we notice or not. From my experience, becoming sober caused me to gain better control of my life and my emotions. I have not had a blackout, hangover, or used alcohol as an excuse for anything since I quit. I own my actions and my decisions. I have clarity around what I want in life, friendships, etc. And I'm better at speaking up now too. No more drowning in alcohol to cope with stuff, using healthy alternatives like actually processing emotions and "why" you need alcohol after a hard day's work or when someone upsets you, and always getting a good night's sleep. Everyone is different but I would highly recommend giving up alcohol if possible.

Hello. Drinking, if you don’t have any health reasons and in moderation is okay. Unless there seems to be an issue with tolerance and the amount of alcohol/frequency. In that case, alcohol can lead to addiction, and several health problems. Both mentally and physically. The consumption can cause you to act out of character resulting in problems in your relationships, work related issues and sleeping disturbances. If alcohol is becoming an issue, please talk to someone you trust and reach out to any professional. You can also talk this matter over with your family physician.

Drinking is not necessarily a bad thing. If it is interfering with the good things in your life perhaps that is a signal that something needs to be changed, which could include why you are drinking or how much you are drinking. For instance, if your health is suffering that is a good reason to stop drinking. If it is interfering with your personal relationship that also may be another reason why you could stop drinking. There are plenty reasons to stop drinking and each individual has their own reasons. Only you can tell what your reason to stop drinking may be.

One way to consider this answer is to look at what are the goals and values you have in your life. Then, consider as objectively as possible, how drinking has impacted your goals or values. For example, if you value meaningful close and honest relationships, consider how the drinking may or may not have impacted your relationship with others. It may also be helpful to consider if the drinking is used as tool to distance or distract from emotions that are painful, in which case you may want to consider whether addressing and welcoming those emotions may also help you either achieve your goals or preserve and nourish your values. Often, if you can be in a place where your behavior, are aligned with your goals and values in a meaningful way, you might reach the answer on your own.

While recreational drinking can be alright in moderation, once we abuse the activity in an effort to cope with our own struggles, it can become harmful to our mind and body. For those with addiction problems, becoming sober is a great path towards healing. If you are relying on alcohol in an unhealthy way, it would be very beneficial to stop drinking and perhaps lean on friends/family/therapists for emotional support and guidance. Once you find a way to address the triggers or underlying issues that are causing you to turn to drinking, you can use the proper coping strategies to heal in a healthy way.
