“It wasn’t easy. Addiction is a cruel and frightening illness. But together @lincolntownley and I realised that we were destroying many lives including our own and we did it.

“I now have a wonderful marriage that is the foundation of my life. Our kids are happy and I hope those of you struggling find the strength to stop.

“If alcohol no longer makes you happy, if your drinking makes others lives miserable it’s time to stop. There is help there if you need it.”
