Have you ever wondered if your drinking habits are actually normal? I’m breaking down the eight biggest signs that made me realize I wasn’t a “normal” drinker.
We’re diving into both facts and feelings because sometimes we need science to slap us in the face and other times, we know in our gut.
If you’ve ever found yourself mentally preparing for drinking events, obsessing over your calendar, or pushing drinks on your friends just so it feels normal, this episode is for you.
Here’s what we’re covering:
- The moment I realized I wasn’t a “normal” drinker
- The guilt & shame cycle keeps us stuck
- Why setting new health goals without changing your drinking never works
- How alcohol tricks you into thinking you’re in control
- The difference between social drinkers & alcoholics
And let’s be real, if you’ve ever felt proud for “handling” your drinking one night only to spiral the next, that’s a major red flag. It’s not about if you drink; it’s about how much space alcohol takes up in your mind and life.
