Robert Wants to Ask You A Few Important Questions...

Do you feel that alcohol is controlling your life right now, or at least becoming a MAJOR distraction that's starting to negatively affect everything you do?
Do you feel that if you stopped drinking or at least CONTROLLED your drinking... things would be better for you?
Do you often find it tough to make it through the day without feeling you NEED a drink? Is the thought of drinking constantly on your mind?
Do you ever use drinking as a coping mechanism or a way to relax and de-stress... and it's something you seem to look forward to?
Are you starting to find that the more you drink... the LESS OFTEN your friends, family, and co-workers come around?
"Is alcohol causing damage to your life - your health, your relationships with your family and children?"
Do you feel that your drinking is starting to hurt the ones you love... or at least negatively affect your relationships with them?
Do You Ever Worry About How Your Partner Feels Because of Your Drinking?
Do you ever worry that your excessive drinking COULD be setting a WRONG example for your kids... that they may model and COPY your behavior?
Or do you ever worry that you won't "be there" for your kids when you need to be, because of your drinking?
If you can answer "Yes" to ANY of the above... and you feel that your life would be better if you found a way to control or STOP your drinking.... then I have something just for you.
You see... over the last few years, I've taken all the information I learned and used to quit drinking... and I put them into a new Course starting with a 204 page Course Book.

How Alcohol is Destroying Your Health

This is a painful section but I need to do this to remind you of the damage alcohol is doing to you every time you reach for a drink. Especially if you have been drinking for years.
According to the NIAAA - the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, the leading organization for researching and tackling alcohol problems in the United States, 17 million adults over the age of 18 had an Alcohol Use Disorder in 2012. And 1.4 million received treatment at a specialist facility in the same year.
Let's have a quick run-through of the potentially life-threatening damage which your years of alcohol have been causing you:
  • When the liver is breaking down alcohol it produces acetaldehyde, a substance which has toxic effects on your liver, brain and stomach lining, resulting in headache, nausea, vomiting and heartburn.
  • Dehydration - Also the liver needs water to do its work but alcohol is a diuretic meaning it removes water. So the liver has to divert water away from other organs including the brain making you feel worse and further dehydrated
  • Effects on the Kidneys: Alcohol can have major impacts on the kidneys. The main ways are from causing cell damage and enlarging the kidneys to impacting the various hormones that control kidney function.
  • Alcohol causes an ionic imbalance in the body that can affect many metabolic processes.
  • Skin: Because alcohol dehydrates your body and skin, this causes redness of the skin and makes it appear blotchy. This is particularly more marked with women as their skin is thinner than men's so the effects are more marked.
  • Brain: In large amounts, alcohol interferes with some of the chemical messages in your brain. It dramatically reduces your ability to learn and form memories, which is why people experience "blackouts". Long-term heavy drinking can lead to problems in learning new skills.
  • Psychological Effects: Alcohol can reduce inhibitions which lead to destructive or unhelpful changes in behavior. Excessive drinking also affects chemical balances within the brain such as the production of serotonin, which regulates moods. So depressive feelings, insomnia and a loss of concentration can be the results.
  • Magnifying Your Existing Emotions: "What's in a sober man's mind is on a drunken one's tongue" - Alcohol is like a magnifier. If you are depressed, it will make you more depressed. If you are angry, it will make you more angry etc.
  • Other Psychological Problems: Addiction, Cravings as you rely on alcohol for mood change, Affecting Judgement and Ability to correctly assess threats putting you at risk. It can become a habit which can lead to feelings of boredom and hopelessness.
As you read this doesn't this cause you to feel worried and to really feel the potential harm you have done to yourself? Don't you start to question yourself - is this what you want to do with your life? Don't you deserve better than this? And to stop putting yourself and your family through the hell of dealing with sickness and illness caused by your alcohol drinking?
Do you want this damage to your body to continue? Or would you rather stop this and survive the effects of alcohol? And be healthy, happy and clear in mind and in your body?

What Is in Your Drink?

What is alcohol?


 Alcohol is a drink containing ethanol. Ethanol acts as a depressant on the body. This means that it slows down the brain’s activities and the activity of the spinal cord. The body actually assesses ethanol to be a poison and takes measures to eliminate it accordingly.

How Alcohol Works On You: Alcohol passes from your mouth into your stomach and small intestine, where it is absorbed into the bloodstream. If the stomach is empty, the alcohol is quickly absorbed. Only a few minutes after drinking, alcohol will be across your body. It is then circulated through your liver and on to your heart, lungs and brain.

Effects of Alcohol: 
1 Unit of Alcohol = 1 Glass of Wine = 1 Cocktail = 1 Shot = 1/2 Pint of Beer
1 to 3 Units: Flushing of Skin, Heart Speeds Up, Talkative
4 to 6 Units: Judgment is affected, Giddiness, Co-ordination affected
7 to 9 Units: Vision blurred, Speech fuzzy, Reaction time slower
10 to 15 Units: Staggering, Loss of balance, Double Vision


What The Liver Does: The liver eliminates 90% of alcohol in the body, 10% is excreted through urine and the breath. The liver can only deal with one standard drink in an hour. So, the alcohol in one pint of ordinary strength lager will take two hours to pass out of your body. The excess alcohol affects the brain, heart, muscles, and other tissues of the body.

Short-Term Problems:When the liver is breaking down alcohol it produces acetaldehyde, a substance which has toxic effects on your liver, brain and stomach lining, resulting in headache, nausea, vomiting and heartburn. Also the liver needs water to do its work but alcohol is a diuretic meaning it removes water. So the liver has to divert water away from other organs including the brain making you feel worse and further dehydrated.

Long-term Damage To Liver: Cirrhosis of the Liver, Alcoholic Hepatitis, Fatty Deposits in Liver


Effects on the Kidneys: Alcohol can have major impacts on the kidneys. The main ways are from causing cell damage and enlarging the kidneys to impacting the various hormones that control kidney function. Alcohol causes an ionic imbalance in the body that can affect many metabolic processes.

Skin: Because alcohol dehydrates your body and skin, this causes redness of the skin and makes it appear blotchy. This is particularly more marked with women as their skin is thinner than men’s so the effects are more marked.

Brain: In large amounts, alcohol interferes with some of the chemical messages in your brain. It dramatically reduces your ability to learn and form memories, which is why people experience "blackouts”. Long-term heavy drinking can lead to problems in learning new skills.

Psychological Effects: Alcohol can reduce inhibitions which lead to destructive or unhelpful changes in behaviour. Excessive drinking also affects chemical balances within the brain such as the production of serotonin, which regulates moods. So depressive feelings, insomnia and a loss of concentration can be the results.

Magnifying Your Existing Emotions: “What’s in a sober man’s mind is on a drunken one’s tongue” - Alcohol is like a magnifier. If you are depressed, it will make you more depressed. If you are angry, it will make you more angry etc.

Other Psychological Problems: Addiction, Cravings as you rely on alcohol for mood change, Affecting Judgement and Ability to correctly assess threats putting you at risk. It can become a habit which can lead to feelings of boredom and hopelessness.

Having Great Fun!!

This was me having a blast on the water but today life is much different, I thought drinking was a beautiful life to my surprises it was not to be like that and had no ideas it would turn out the way it is now.
I little voice said to me 
"Hello…just in case you forgot me..I am your disease..To all who come in contact with me, I wish you death and i wish you suffering. Allow me to introduce myself. I am the disease of Alcohol addiction
I am cunning, baffling and powerful. You think you can control me and you won’t and never will with the thinking .. oh, just a little.. one more time. I am cunning, baffling, and powerful. That’s me. I have killed millions and I am pleased. I love to catch you with the element of surprise. I love pretending that I am your lover and friend. I have given you comfort, haven’t I? Wasn’t I there when you were lonely? When you wanted to die didn’t you call on me? I was there! I love to make you hurt, I love to make you cry. Better yet, I love to make you so numb you can neither hurt nor cry. I love it when you can’t feel anything at all. This is true gratification, and all that I ask from you is long-term suffering. I’ve been there for you always. When things were going right in your life, you invited me, and you said you don’t deserve these good things, and I was the only one who would agree with you.
Together we were able to destroy all the good things in your life. People don’t take me seriously. They take strokes, heart attacks even diabetes seriously. Fools! Without my help these things would not be possible. I am such a hated disease and yet I do not come uninvited. You choose to have me.
So many have chosen me over reality and peace..More than you hate me I hate all of you who have a 12 step program. Your program, Your meeting, Your Higher Power…all of these things weaken me, and I can’t function in the manner that I am accustomed to. Now, I must lie here quietly, You don’t see me, but I am growing . When you only exist, I may live and when you live I may only exist but I am here. And, until we meet again, if we meet again, I wish you death and suffering. Just for today, I wish to say goodbye old friend.

Just a note to the problem drinker, I lost my Father June 15th 2015 to Kidney Disease this last fathers day, After he lasted 4 years longer then anyone on me and my family could have imagined.
