Alcohol addiction can hide behind a job, a smile or a 6-pack

A PERSONAL trainer who seemed to have the perfect life has revealed how he secretly battled a hidden alcohol addiction and spent £150 a night on vodka-fuelled binges.

Danny Dunne says people never believed he could be an alcoholic because he was physically fit.

But behind the scenes, the 26-year-old Glaswegian was drinking heavily several times a week. Danny used alcohol as a way to cope with anxiety and the struggles in his life.

He said: "I would find an excuse to drink and it wasn't for the right reasons. I started to like it so much.

"If I were feeling anxious, I would go and have a drink - it was like someone took over and I just couldn't stop. I would either pass out or run out of booze. It was really bad."
