How alcohol attacks the brain.
A guide to the sequential damage alcohol inflicts on neural tissue.

When I stopped drinking in my 50s I realised quickly that if you wait for everyone to understand your decision you’ll be waiting forever. People will always have something to say. Some think you’re being extreme. Some think you’re judging them. Some turn it into a joke because they’re uncomfortable facing their own drinking.

Most of it comes from stigma. We live in a culture where drinking is seen as normal and choosing not to drink needs an explanation. You’re expected to justify yourself as if wanting a clearer head and a healthier life is somehow unusual.

You don’t owe anyone a reason. Sobriety is a personal choice and it doesn’t need to make sense to anyone except you. The people who respect you won’t question it. The ones who do were never going to offer the support you needed anyway.

Still have some resources available

Feeling so grateful and blessed as eight years ago today, a few brave souls joined me in pioneering this MMH venture. We survived start up and a global pandemic and have had the opportunity to assist hundreds of clients and families improve mental health, relationships, communication, behaviors, resolve trauma and obtain/maintain sobriety. We have the most amazing team of compassionate persevering professionals providing empowering and empathic quality services and the greatest support team behind the scenes to help make it all possible. We have hosted several interns to gain experience in the field and have been fortunate to partner and collaborate with dedicated area providers. One of the stats I find most surprising and feel especially blessed by is the volume of pro bono (aka free services) we have been able to make available for those in need. On the eve of what is often the start of the most difficult time of year for many it is my wish and prayer that no matter what you may be going through, juggling or struggling with, that you find something which you can be grateful for and someone you can express gratitude to. I wish to express my deepest gratitude to the clients who have entrusted their care to us, the referring and collaborating partners in our community, our amazing MMH staff and my True North who navigates the course~Soli Deo Gloria
