2. You Are Drinking On The Job
As you are home, none of the members of your organisation is with you to keep an eye on you. As such you maybe tempted to have multiple bottles of beer when no one is looking over your shoulder.
3. It's Becoming A Preoccupation
You start thinking about your drink much before you intend to drink, hardly being able to wait to get started. It therefore makes you engrossed and it becomes an addiction soon.
4. You Feel Unwell Physically
If you are waking up with headaches, sensitivity to light, dehydration and other hangover symptoms, it clearly says that you are drinking too much.
So folks, never wait till these signs show up. Take note of your drinking habit from now on.
