What I've Learned About Missing Drinking Alcohol at 12 Years Sober

Episode #357 Hey there!  I'm glad you're here.  If you miss drinking alcohol, you are not the only one.  In this episode, I share what missing drinking in my first year felt like, why the six-month mark is a time to really care for yourself, and what missing drinking alcohol truly is for me. It's not about alcohol. It's about nostalgia and youth more than anything. You'll walk away from this episode knowing you are not alone, that missing alcohol is valid, that you can miss it and stay alcohol-free, and that what you do with that feeling is what matters.
