Why Do We Want To Live a Life Without Alcohol?

Why Do We Want To Live a Life Without Alcohol?

This is the most important and first question we need to ask because the answer we give is at the heart of why we want to live a long, happy life.

When we know our most profound reasons for wanting to change the way alcohol shows up in our lives, we can call on them when we have an unexpected craving and stay on track with our recovery.

Every person is unique and lives their own life. Our reasons for doing things will also differ from person to person. Thinking carefully about the things that have made us want to live without dependence can help us devise a good plan to stop drinking.

Here Are Some Of The Reasons:

• Health goals include better health, better fitness, better sleep, and preventing disease.

• In terms of how you look, alcohol can give you wrinkles, make your skin pale, and make you look older than you are. For some, this is enough to get them to go to rehab.

• Mental health: a better memory, clearer thinking, and getting rid of mental health problems like depression or anxiety.

• Emotional health means having a higher sense of self-worth, less embarrassing experiences when drunk, more self-confidence, and more awareness of and control of your emotions.

• Relationships: Get along better with your family and friends and be a good parent to your kids.

• You'll save more money because you'll spend less on alcohol and do a better job at work if you don't drink.

When we can figure out what drives us most, we've already taken the first step toward getting better.
