Google and join them if you need help to stop using alcohol and become a better human resource.
My earlier articles about rise in alcoholism and it's evil causes. Hoping and Praying that we can eradicate this excessive alcohol consumption problem from the face of earth.

I also feel satisfied that I have personally made several people to stop drinking alcohol, come up in life, enjoy time, support and life with their kids. I sincerely Thank God for giving me that opportunity.
On 2017 - Still Alcohol is causing more deaths. However good to know there are People like Mr. Harman Singh working against curbing the sales.
