The best thing would be that people that have issue with alcohol, first admit the fact to themselves, and then to start to seek for help. Otherwise, any attempt of solute alcohol abuse problem would be hopeless.
If you already decide to stop drinking, the most important thing is to find concrete problems that make you sure more that you want to stop drinking. The strong decision is the half of solution. Those problems could be different such as unproductiveness, painful hangovers, irritability and many other problems. All of these mentioned things can keep you away from having the normal life. Some of the problems could be extremely serious and even to cause death. Those are heart attacks, cirrhosis, alcoholic hepatitis, cancer of the colon and rectum, or breast cancer among women.
