am I an alcoholic?

What this episode covers

The word alcoholic has become a bit of a dirty word, it has negative connotations and negative stereotypes associated with it, but in actual fact.. we pretty much all have dependency issues when it comes to alcohol even if we don't want to admit it or see it as a problem. If I told you you couldn't drink for the next year of your life, wouldn't you panic? It has become so normalised and ingrained into our society, working its way into every occasion, event, celebration, break-up, day ending in y, basically no matter what the occurrence, why wouldn't alcohol be involved? On this weeks episode I'm unpacking mine and society's relationship with alcohol, debating how I want it to be a part of my life, and why it's important for me to build a life that doesn't revolve around waiting for the next drink and avoiding my emotions by reaching for the bottle.  Music by Jorge Gill https://www.instagram.com/jorgegill/ https://open.spotify.com/artist/06gZcKE43fmppPdPVYG8HV?si=i9Tt-h45SuS9swgmxy0g4A Learn more about your ad choices.
