Changing alcohol behaviour The purpose of this article is to summarise the available methods that can help facilitate an alcohol behaviour change and hopefully help you to stop binge drinking. You don’t have to agree with everything; you don’t even have to do anything; but it might help to build your knowledge – the first [...]

Alcohol blackout stories
I’ve just read a book called “Cries from the Abyss” – it’s written by an American doctor and is focused on people that have alcohol blackouts and do stupid things. Here’s the link to the book. http://www.alcoholblackout.com/ There are some real horror stories, like John Hutcherson aged just 21: On the way home from [...]
Alcohol blackout on a stag do
Hmmm.. Last night’s Stag / Bachelor party was a bit messy and I blacked out and lost control. I did take Naltrexone, but deep down I still wanted to get wasted…so I did. Naltrexone can only help so much. If you want to get wasted then you will still get wasted. However, Nal really did [...]
Quit Binge Drinking and Getting Fucked Up
I love it – I love that the guy (or girl) that spent over an hour reading the posts yesterday typed in “Quit Binge Drinking and Getting Fucked Up” That’s what it’s about isn’t it? We’re not slowly pickling our livers with daily drinking. We are binge drinkers that love getting fucked up… but the [...]
In a dangerous place…
I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and I’ve avoided writing this post for two weeks now. I couldn’t handle my cravings and I had a drink for the first time in nearly 8 months. Let me qualify that statement – it wasn’t a physical craving that caused me to drink, but an emotional response to [...]
I have a crazy idea…
Binge Drinkers are in a strange place. Alcoholics Anonymous isn’t really the right place for us. Our GPs are pretty useless and have a target of 5 minutes to give us advice. The information to help us stop binge drinking is out there, but how can we access this? How can we learn the strategies [...]
Wow… the binge drinking urge is strong…
Part of me didn’t want to write this, but it’s important that I’m open and honest with how I’m coping. Giving up alcohol and learning to live without drinking is not easy. This is my first time abroad with my new job. Heading to Copenhagen from Aarhus on the train. Just one client meeting left [...]
2 days in Denmark… will I binge?
I’m heading down to the Airport as I have a 2-day business trip in Denmark. Historically I planned my big binge sessions around a work trip. I’ve previously been invited to speak at conferences in Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam and Florida. I always requested that my presentation was on the first day as I knew by [...]

You need to control your drinking
My wife didn’t sleep last night. She was worried all night about a discussion where I said I’d like to have a drink again. The problem is, she didn’t say, “I’m feeling concerned, I know you have some cravings, what options do you have?” What she said was, “I didn’t sleep last night as I’m [...]

Life can be great if you are not drinking
Just a short post as I’m looking through the photos from my trip away with my wife. We had a great time, 2-nights away in Manchester. My desire to drink the last week has been strong, but as I’m no longer having caffeine or the Sudafed (Pseudo-Ephedrin stimulant) tablets to clear my flu, I’m a [...]
