Queens Councilman Eric Ulrich admitted he is suffering from alcoholism in a Facebook message he posted Friday, writing that the COVID-19 pandemic had turned what used to be a social activity into something “self-destructive.”
“The COVID pandemic has affected people in different ways,” Ulrich (R-Queens) acknowledged.
“What used to be mainly a social activity, and a way to cope with stress, has now become far too frequent and self-destructive,” he wrote. “After talking about this with my family and friends, I have decided to finally quit and get sober.”
UIrich was elected to the City Council in 2013 and will leave office at the end of the year under the city’s term limits law.

Good for him and his Family !
Wish him a full recovery !
Even working under the drink Eric Ulrich has done so much good work I never had to call my useless Community Board 10.
Not my circus not my monkey
Who cares?
Yes... this is no Crap! Wish him well and move on, folks. He was always there for his constituents and did not ignore requests for help. So unlike some we could mention here!
He is a brazen liar, coward and thief. Not only did he ignore my serious allegations of agency corruption as a whistleblower, but by ignoring my complaint altogether he instantly transoformed a simple matter to resolve into a karmic disaster of red tape and deeper disparity that malingered for decades. And, his worthless, crony, handpicked staff of vapid stooges were no better. He deserves to be impeached with dishonor for his great arrogance and evil cowardice! I'll drink to that!
Don’t kid yourself Eric - no one gives a crap
I commend his openness and determination.
"no one gives a crap"
Speak for yourself hater !
Best wishes Eric...
