EP150 The first step to overcome alcohol use disorder is not “drinking less”
Description
How do you feel about yourself when you wake up and realize you did it again?
If you get hangxiety and shameovers after drinking, it’s not your relationship with alcohol that needs to change. It’s your relationship with yourself.
The performance-based, perfectionistic mindset that fuels your success in other areas of your life also drives you into a cycle of self-sabotage.
Because when you beat yourself up for making a mistake, you shut off access to the part of the brain that learns from mistakes.
The solution to alcohol use disorder is a feeling…a feeling of confidence in your ability to learn. On today’s episode, you’ll learn:
-
The exact mechanism that causes you to overdrink
-
A step-by-step process to break the cycle of shame next time you wake up hungover
-
Why the road to recovery must be paved with love, self-compassion and curiosity
