Listen "423: Explaining Overdrinking"
Episode Synopsis
Have you ever woken up after drinking too much and immediately thought either, "I f*cked up" or "I must be f*cked up?" These two seemingly similar thoughts actually reveal deep-rooted societal beliefs about drinking problems that might be keeping you stuck. It doesn't matter your age, gender, education level, or socioeconomic status – these thoughts show up consistently and create major roadblocks to changing your drinking habits. In this episode, you'll learn where these thoughts come from, why they're so harmful, and what you need to understand instead. This line of thinking leads to shame and self-blame that make lasting change nearly impossible, and it's time to break free from this vicious cycle of pathologizing your behavior around alcohol. Find a personalized approach that helps you change your habit in my new book, The Ultimate Guide to Drinking Less, here: https://rachelhart.com/guide/ Discover alternative approaches to drinking less inside our membership program, Take a Break: https://rachelhart.com/tab/ Get the full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://rachelhart.com/423
