Alcoholic Denial & How We Justify Our Drinking

Once you start to notice the nonsense around drinking it will become more and more clear to you that it is not something you want or need in your life a moment longer.

I am writing this blog post on a British Airways flight from Larnaca, Cyprus to London, Heathrow. There is a middle-aged couple sitting next to me. The guy just ordered tonic water and his wife quietly ordered a brandy and coke.

Before the air hostess placed her drink down in front of her, she turned to her husband and said ‘I am only having a brandy to settle my stomach before lunch’.

I resisted the urge to say ‘bulls*it, you are having brandy at 10 am because you are addicted to alcohol’.
