Blackouts, the voms, broken promises, the bad mood bear, hang-xiety, secret stashes & increased alcohol tolerance. If this were a test for problematic drinking, Maz in 2014 scored 100%! The point of identifying these red flags, is to then understand if your relationship with alcohol is having a negative effect on your life. If you identify with one or more of these red flags (again, remember Maz was 7/7) then here are some steps you can take towards embracing your sober curious self.
