Publisher's summary

What is life like without alcohol? And could you cope?

If you feel the need to sort out your issue with alcohol but you are scared or reluctant to quit because you can't imagine life without a drink, then this audiobook is for you.

Here's an awakening and thought-provoking book aimed at people contemplating cutting down or even giving up their drinking forever, and a book that might just change your life!

After 40 years of drinking and ending up a total alcoholic mess with type two diabetes, high blood pressure, gout, and truthfully expecting to be dead not long after the age of 56, one day in 2012, I decided to quit alcohol forever. I've never touched a drop since, and I have never been so wonderfully healthy, happy, or contented, and I have hopefully added at least 30 years to my life!

But before that fateful day, I never wanted to give up drinking. I loved drinking, and I couldn't envisage life without the daily joy of bottles of wine, cider, and the occasional gin. So what is it really like when you throw the alcohol crutch away, and how have I coped with what I expected to be a life full of daily challenges, stress, regret, boredom, and witnessing the laughter and the fun times steadily fade into distant memory? What will it be like for you if you follow my example?

This book will help you answer those very questions and hopefully convince you that quitting is easy, that you can do it too, and that you will look back at your life and wonder why you waited so long.

Thank you

Thank you for the simple words of this book. I appreciate the straight forward approach and that you didn't concentrate on what would be missing but instead on what you will gain. It has also provided great insight into the mindset of the person that is quitting and they may not be able to put words to it as it is happening.

not much motivation

I understand the writers trying to be helpful, but it's just mainly stories of what he does since he stopped drinking alcohol. some of them are very long-winded and I found boring. at this point I'm not sure if I can even listen to the last hour of the book.
