Ep 287 Drinking Social Pressure and Unsupportive Comments

This episode dives in the problem of people in our lives who might say unsupportive comments about you cutting back or quitting alcohol.  I explain WHY they might do this and how to navigate it if the person who is the offender is important to you.  I also discuss our culture and the social pressure we experience when we are actively trying to change things.  These things can be scary and make us not want to share and tell the truth about our drinking.  But remember, this discomfort is temporary and you can get to a place where you aren't bothered by our heavy drinking society and other peoples thoughts and comments.  Down the road, you will have established stronger boundaries, you will say no to doing things or being around people who don't feel supportive, you will move past this and have the true freedom you seek.
