      <description><![CDATA[That alcohol is a big problem. It actually seems low to me that alcohol related problems are estimated to affect 10 percent of North American society. Since I started to mostly stay away from it except in the social circumstance, my life has become much better. I do not think that we need alcohol to be calm, to find peace, to escape the stress of life. Alcohol creates more stress than it solves in my opinion. Also I did not know that alcoholic women are more likely to suffer physical damage than male alcoholics. Does that make it harder or easier for women to quit it than men I wonder.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Wow: I didn't realized that a full 10 percent of North American society is affected by problems associated with alcohol! The statistic that alcohol plays a role in over 50% of accidental deaths is striking. Finally, while not surprised, I didn't know that women were more likely than men to experience "physical damage". By physical damage, do you mean damage to the body from impacts of drinking on biology or behavioral damage (e.g. risky behavior, vulnerability to abuse). I am glad that I never started drinking!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Alcohol addiction is quite serious and quite hard to quit. The negative effects far outweigh the short term benefits of instant gratification or relief. Detoxing is also tremendously difficult and quite a tedious process. Thankfully, there are supplements that can aid in the process to make things go a bit better. Prevention is always better than treatment, so it's always best to avoid alcohol altogether if you have an addictive personality or a history of addiction.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I quit consuming alcohol approximately 3 years ago. In addition to the above described tactics. I would also recommend the following as substance addiction is as much mental as it is physical:
1. Addictive Voice Recognition Technique: Learn to recognize when your addictive inner voice is urging you to want to consume alcohol. Remember that you addictive voice cannot control your body, as it is only a mental urging for you do something. Your addictive voice cannot tell your finger to move or cause your arm to lift. Only you through a conscious action can cause those body actions. As you recognize your addictive voice you will slowly and consciously say that it does not control my actions as you control your actions. You do not have to follow the urgings of your addictive voice, but consciously choose to follow your will which is the desire to abstain from alcohol. You will eventually learn to control and overcome your addictive voice.
2. Remember that alcohol provides a temporary euphoric feeling, however there is always an opposite other side side of those feelings whether they be undesired actions, behaviours or thoughts. Focus upon the unwanted behaviours, and not upon the temporary euphoria
3.  If you feel like relapsing by consuming alcohol, then remember if you stop now then you will reset the clock to the beginning. If you quit now then you'll end up right back where you first began. And when you first began you were desperate to be right where you are now.  Keep going.
4.  Try non-alcoholic drinks such as non-alcoholic beer and wine. There are many great varieties which taste very much like the alcoholic versions. Sometimes the taste alone helps to pacify any cravings from your addictive voice.
5. Abstaining from alcohol will help to lose weight and improve your health. The absence of those empty calories by excluding alcohol really makes a difference upon your daily calorie intake and the ability for your liver to metabolize food. You will be quite amazed at how much easier it will be for you to lose weight and get in shape.]]></description>
