Game of Thrones fans will remember Ser Jorah Mormont picking up a greyscale infection. Mormont discovered the infection when ‘greyscales’ appear on his wrist. Over time, Mormont knew that the disease was progressing because when he glanced into the glint of his sword, greyscale covered more and more of his body.

 

Alcoholism isn’t as forgiving as a greyscale infection. 

 

Most people don’t see, hear or smell alcoholism, and if your senses don’t pick it up, then it doesn’t become a problem.

 

Blissfully unaware of the ever-tightening grip of one of the most complex and destructive addictions in the world, it becomes a hidden monster that without the right support system and tools will destroy us slowly but surely. 

 

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. 

 

The first step is realisation.

 

But here you are.

 

Now you have it.
