If you’ve ever questioned your drinking—even just a little—I highly recommend Bad Drunk. Not because it has a 10-step plan, but because it offers something rarer: permission to explore your own relationship with alcohol without shame.

Many people assume that sheer willpower is enough to stop drinking. They believe that if they just "want it badly enough," they can overcome cravings, break old habits, and build a new life without alcohol. But the reality is far more complex.
