WATCH – NOT WORTH IT! –
Oct. 24, 2025 – Warning: This article contains discussion of alcoholism which some readers may find distressing.
A doctor has revealed the type of drinker who is more susceptible to developing a ‘terrifying’ side effect of alcohol when going through withdrawal. Enjoying a pint of beer or a glass of wine remains a popular way for Brits to spend their spare time, with Alcohol Change UK estimating that 10.7 litres of pure alcohol are consumed per person, per year, on average. However, research does suggest that attitudes towards alcohol are changing nationally, with 82 per cent of UK adults now drinking within recommended guidelines. There has also been a rise in people even giving up alcohol for extended periods of time, with trends such as ‘Dry January’ and ‘Sober October’ growing in popularity.
There has also been a rise in understanding about how alcohol can impact your body – particularly those who have an unhealthy or dependent relationship with drinking.
