As can be understood from Andris Kivich's podcast with Erik Stendzenieks, the entrepreneur has not consumed alcohol for three years, so he shared his feelings about giving up drinking.
“I thought the end would be about drugs, but Kivich set a trap right at the beginning,” Stendzenieks commented on the show where he was interviewed by Andris Kivich.
Stendzenieks reveals how dependent he was on alcohol and what the consequences were.
“The first months are very hard in the sense that while you are drinking, it seems to you that if I stop drinking, I will stop being interesting, funny, my sense of humor, creativity, motivation, and focus will disappear, and the main thing is that in the first month, this is exactly how it happens, and it seems to you that it will be like this for the rest of your life.”
However, Stendzenieks also admits that later these negative feelings disappear, and he fully recovered even without the help of alcohol.
