  484: When family members don't support your decision to drink less

  Sep 1, 202621 min

  When family members don't understand your decision to drink less or stop drinking, their disapproval can feel especially difficult to shake. You may know that you're making the right choice for you and still find yourself wishing they would understand, accept it, or simply stop commenting on it. This week, we're exploring why a family member's reaction can feel so much more charged than someone else disagreeing with your choices. What if their judgment doesn't mean quite what your brain thinks it means? And what might become possible if you stopped trying to get them to understand your decision?

  483: Why can't I just have one drink and be satisfied?

  Aug 25, 202614 min

  Having one drink can seem like the obvious way to satisfy a craving. You scratch the itch, your brain gets what it wants, and then you move on. Except sometimes having one drink seems to do the exact opposite, and suddenly you want another, and then another. This week, we're exploring why satisfying a desire doesn't always make that desire disappear. What if wanting more after that first drink doesn't mean you haven't had enough? And what if it also doesn't mean you can't trust yourself to have that first drink in the first place?

This week, we're exploring what might be happening when someone wants you to drink less, but doesn't want you to stop.

  Aug 11, 202621 min

  480: Tolerating the discomfort of not having another drink

  Aug 4, 202613 min

  It might feel like the hardest part of drinking less is forcing yourself to stop, but what if the discomfort isn't coming from wanting more at all? This week, we're taking a closer look at what really happens in the moment you decide not to have another drink. You'll discover why wanting and liking aren't the same thing, why pleasure naturally fades whether you keep drinking or not, and how your brain's running commentary can trick you into believing that stopping is what feels so uncomfortable.
