Have a Drinking Problem?

Posted by in Health & Fitness

The only real question, then, is “just how bad is it?”

You can figure this out easily enough.  The first thing you need to do is to try to go for 30 days without taking any alcohol at all.  This part of the test is critical, but it does not qualify all of the alcoholics out there, because there is such a thing as a binge drinker.

To find the binge drinkers, we need a second 30 day trial.  In this one, you must take one drink per day, every single day.  No exceptions.

Now if you can make it through each of these 30 day trials without slipping up or cheating, then you can safely pat yourself on the back and declare that you really do not have a drinking problem.

If, on the other hand, you find yourself struggling with either of these two experiments, then you are going to have to face the facts and realize that these 30 day trials are a piece of cake for “non-alcoholics.”

If you fail the trial, you have to deal with your denial.  No more excuses.
