I’m off the Booze

Hi Scott,
 
I’ve been meaning to write to you for some time now. I work as a police officer and, as you could imagine, I have developed what might be called a bit of a habit of drinking. I never thought I had much of a problem, yet time went on. I read your response to a lady who wrote in asking about giving up drinking as a New Year’s resolution. Your reply mentioned a podcast by Dr Andrew Huberman. I watched the YouTube video and it made me open my eyes to how poisonous alcohol is and how little you need to drink to be considered chronic. I loved your reasons as well. I have not touched a drop since. I’ve found I’m sleeping better, and am calmer and less stressed as a result. I want to thank you because I don’t think I would have ever stopped if it wasn’t for you (and Dr Huberman). My life is so much better and my kids now have a better role model.
 
All the best, Nigel
 
Hi Nigel
 
If I had a dollar for every person who wrote to me saying they’d given up the grog after reading that article and listening to the podcast, I’d be able to shout Barnaby Joyce a night out on the turps. You got this!

Scott.
