Welcome to The Truth About Alcohol. I’m Lee Davy.
This podcast is for people who know something about their drinking doesn’t quite add up — and want to understand why stopping can feel so much harder than it should.
No labels. No judgement. No “rock bottom” stories required.
We talk about what alcohol really does to the body, brain, and nervous system, why cravings and rituals are so persistent, and why willpower isn’t the issue most people think it is. You’ll hear calm, honest conversations that reduce shame, make the confusion make sense, and help you see your next step more clearly — whether you’re still drinking, trying to stop, or have stopped but don’t feel settled.
If you’ve ever thought, “I’m intelligent, capable, and functional… so why can’t I just stop?” you’re in the right place.

I used to believe I was some sort of freak because nobody could think the things that I thought, feel the things I felt and behave the way I had behaved.
I don’t think like that anymore.
Today, I feel that 7.8 billion people in the world are one. We share the same strange thoughts, experience the same freakish feelings, and keep carrying out destructive behaviours.
In short, we are all a little bit fucked up.
So what’s the remedy?
We need more people speaking their truth. That’s the vibration I want to see rippling throughout the world, and it begins with a single vibration - me.
I created this monologue because I have seen too many self-help coaches provide help and support for victims of narcissists by throwing the narcissists under the bus. For every narcissist victim they 'save', they are driving someone else deeper into their shame.
That’s not what I signed up for when I decided to help people.
My name is Lee Davy; I am not an alcoholic. I refuse to be anonymous, and I have narcissistic traits.
