Greig is back on the show again to talk more about the effects of alcoholism on his life and the benefits of recovery in Alcoholics Anonymous. He grew up underage drinking and although his dad was an alcoholic, recovering in AA, Greig didn’t think that his own drinking was that severe.
It wasn’t till into his early thirties that he realized that most of his friends had settled down and were taking life more seriously that he reflected on the impact his daily drinking was having on his relationships and work life. The final straw was his violent reaction when his marriage ended, he finally went to AA thinking that this would be the start of a very miserable existence without alcohol.
Unsurprisingly, Greig’s life improved, he reconnected with his dad, his work and relationships improved, and his two kids haven’t seen him drink.
