Why One Will Hurt

from Sober Awkward

Once you have given up drinking for a while, there is a chance that three little words will slowly creep into your mind - 'One Won't Hurt.' You begin to convince yourself that you can go back to alcohol even though it has caused so much trouble! That naughty pixie that disappeared in sobriety, has snuck back on the scene and is whispering in your ear - 'Come on. Don't be boring! You've proved you can abstain, one won't hurt.' and you find yourself tuning in. "Maybe one will be ok? Yes! - That's the answer! - I will moderate! I will become a normal drinker!" Erm, NO! Sober Awkward is here today to tell you why it's the first drink that does the damage and if you've failed at moderating before it is highly likely you will never be able to achieve this goal. Today they are fighting back against the pixies! Find out some of the ways these guys tried to moderate, why your brain tricks you and what you get if you ditch the idea of moderation and go sober, sober! Vic and Hamish want you the listener to go away comprehending why ‘one will hurt’ and why bidding farewell to booze 100% for good is the only way to benefit from all the incredible gifts sober has to give.
