You don&#8217;t realize it when you&#8217;re in it. And it&#8217;s hard to say that you have a bad relationship with alcohol because you&#8217;re not waking up at 7:00 in the morning drinking vodka before work. That&#8217;s a problem with alcohol.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A bad relationship with alcohol could be many things. I have realized my bad relationship my relationship with alcohol, I use it as a a coping mechanism, a stress reliever to take the edge off. So when I feel stressed I drink more. When I feel very stressed I drink very much and self-destruct. And that is something that over the last year I&#8217;ve been working on massively. We still drink. We still party.
