Alcohol Equals Permanent Consequences
Alcohol equals temporary fun with permanent consequences! Long-term effects of alcohol include:
- anxiety
- changes in weight
- memory loss and problems concentrating
- difficulty focusing

With all the long-term effects of alcohol, why would you want to drink alcohol.
Most of our social lives revolve around alcohol, which is not healthy but can lead to the risk of addiction.
Choosing to be sober may seem like a hard task, but all you need is to find hobbies and activities that can replace drinking alcohol. Here are things to do without drinking alcohol:
- Movie-night
- Having a cook-out and playing board or yard games
- Playing sports
- Going for a run
- Drinking new nonalcoholic drinks
- Read a book.
- Working Out
- Hanging out with friends.
- Listening to music
When you stop drinking and become sober you will start to see a lot of improvements which include:
- Having more energy.
- Your liver will start to repair itself.
- You will feel happier.
- Your skin may improve.
- You may think more clearly.
- You may have better relationships.
- You may feel more productive.
- Your risk for developing diseases will decrease.
Quitting drinking will be the best think you can do. Do you want to live your best life and become sober? Maybe this will be the reason why.

Narcissists Can Impact Your Life for the Worse!
Recovering for narcisstic abuse is possible, but it requires an incredible amount of strength and courage. Courage that you absolutely possess, if you’re willing to “Do the Work”. At BCA Therapy we have therapists in Yardley and Wayne, Pennsylvania that specialize in narcissistic abuse and are here to support you on this journey of recovery. Yourself respect has to run deeper than your feelings. Loving someone isn’t a reason to stay with someone who is continuously hurting you and disrespecting you. This is what is called a toxic relationship. If you do not take the first step and do the right thing by leaving the narcissist this will affect your mental health.
How can a narcissist impact your life? Let’s look at the jar here is how:
How much more are you going to take from a narcissist? Don’t you think it’s time to get away from them? The answer is you should take no more from them and get away from them. They are ruining your mental health. The jar can only hold so much just like your emotions! Don’t let it get that full before it overflows. This requires courage and strength to stay away from narcissists. But at BCA Therapy, we believe everyone is capable of doing this if you are willing to put the work in and do so. It will be so worth it, and the extra baggage will be lifted off you mentally.
