Alcohol and the Hijacked Brain: Why They Can’t Think, Remember, or Decide Like They Used To

from Doc Jacques: Your Addiction Lifeguard · host Dr. Jacques de Broekert

Send us Fan Mail This week on Doc Jacques: Your Addiction Lifeguard, we’re taking a clear-eyed (but not doom-and-gloom) look at how alcohol hijacks the brain—why memory goes missing, logic goes offline, and families feel like they’re arguing with a wall. You’ll learn what’s really happening under the hood, why “just explain it better” doesn’t work, and how to stop wrestling the damaged brain while still throwing a lifeline when your loved one is ready. Support the show
