Ep. 200: How To Put Thoughts of Moderation On Pause

Are you tired of the endless cycle of attempting to moderate your drinking or take breaks from alcohol, only to have your resolve crumble by Friday night (or 6pm) and wake up the next morning asking yourself why you can’t drink like a “normal person”? You’re not alone. I tried to moderate my drinking for years. I made ALL the rules about when I would (or wouldn’t drink) to get a handle on it. And maybe it would work for a while, but never for very long. And I was miserable when I was doing it. If I’m being honest, I’ve never wanted “a” drink in my life. I’ve always wanted that fuzzy, buzzy feeling alcohol gave me and I kept drinking because I never wanted that feeling to end. I just didn’t have an off switch. I drank until the alcohol was gone or I “went to bed” (aka passed out). You don’t want to dive back into the drinking cycle again because once you start with “a” glass, it’s really easy to have that glass become a bottle. And then have that special occasion become a Tuesday night at home. And to have it be incredibly hard to get 2 weeks alcohol-free again.
