You don't need to hit rock bottom. If I wish I'd been able to talk to somebody years ago when I was a professional, I then had my own business but I knew, you know, I'm drinking on a night, and I'm still going to meetings and stuff, I thought that was fine, but it was making me feel like rubbish. There's all that stigma, all that fear, all that judgment placed on people who, you know, feel like that.
