What was said
"I just wanted to do dry January and all I could think about was having a drink. It's all I could think about. I was waking up thinking about it. I was checking the clock. When's it 12? And it just really scared me. I just was like, 'Wow, maybe maybe I have a little bit of an alcohol thing.'"
Tom Holland reveals he realized he had an alcohol addiction when he couldn't stop thinking about drinking during a dry January attempt. He extended his sobriety challenge to six months, during which he experienced significant improvements in sleep, mental clarity, and emotional regulation. Now a year and a half sober, he credits quitting alcohol as the best decision he's ever made and notes his mother has also given it up.
