In this episode of Alec Mapa: Hot Mess with Matthew Dempsey Psychotherapist, Alec opens up about why he made the decision to stop drinking. Alec gets real about how and when he realized he was drinking too much during the pandemic and the impact his alcohol use was having on his relationships. Matt and Alec talk about the importance of identifying the intention of why you drink, when you know you have a problem, blacking out, numbing out, and having the courage to be vulnerable and to talk about hard things.
