Jason used to be a heavy smoker, drinker and junk food addict who also suffered from obesity, asthma, eczema, hay-fever and severe psoriasis.

This work argues that there is no such thing as an 'alcoholic' and that we are conditioned to accept alcohol as a 'normal' substance in the society despite the fact that it is the major cause of many social problems and a wide range of health issues. With the tools that the book has taught me, I have changed that bit of mental software so I now realise it is me being sophisticated by not drinking.
