We see so many questions come in all of the time at This Naked Mind and they all have a common theme to them - why do I keep going back to drinking? Annie Grace dives into three questions that all relate to why we see ourselves drinking again. Annie offers answers on how and why we get stuck in a cycle of Day 1’s and multiple attempts to stop drinking, she explains the way our fears over physical withdrawal symptoms (or our experiences with them) can lead us to drink again, and also touches on the incredible impact our negative self-talk can have on going back to drinking again and again.

Rachel’s early experiences with alcohol led to a lifelong feeling of shame and guilt around her drinking. Yet she kept drinking even though it always felt like she was just one step away from hitting rock bottom. It took the stress of navigating the pandemic and the worry over her ever-increasing blackouts for Rachel to decide she needed to change her drinking habits. Rachel and Annie Grace discuss why they would never have read a book about stopping drinking but learning how to control alcohol felt different, how shame and guilt can keep us stuck, and how getting through all the firsts alcohol-free completely changes you.

Often the hardest part of our journey, when we go alcohol-free, isn’t really our own path, it’s the journey others go on with us. Dealing with change is hard and that is also true for loved ones who we have always indulged before. And often that shows us pressure to drink from a loved one. Annie answers why we feel pressure to drink, and why it really isn’t about us and gives valuable advice on how to gracefully handle the situation while respecting your personal boundaries.

Today, Jessica joins Annie Grace for a special Naked Life episode. Jessica didn’t initially find freedom from alcohol through This Naked Mind. When Jessica found herself battling alcoholic liver disease at 34 years old, she followed the only path she knew and sought out treatment facilities and 12 step programs to find control over alcohol. Fate stepped in when Jessica and Annie Grace crossed paths on Red Table Talk. For the first time Jessica realized there were 12 step alternatives and that she didn’t have to follow a program to stay free from alcohol. Annie and Jessica discuss how our outward success can contribute to and even hide our drinking issues, the serious health risks that are showing up in women from alcohol use, and they take a deep dive into the conflicting beliefs and messages we can get from 12 step programs and 12 step alternatives.

Until it stopped doing that, Kyle and Annie Grace discuss what led Kyle and his wife to stop drinking together, the tools they used to empower themselves on this journey, all the ways life improves once you’re in control of alcohol, and so much more!

Alcohol was such a small part of Suzanne’s personal life for so long. Throughout her teens, 20’s and even her 30s Suzanne had so many other priorities and challenges in her life that alcohol just didn’t factor in. In her 40’s something shifted and she found herself trading bulimia for alcohol addiction. Listen in as Suzanne and Annie discuss how avoidance and hiding from emotions can lead us to an unhealthy relationship with alcohol, how alcohol can quickly go from being insignificant to an issue, moving past the shame that keeps us stuck, and how relationships can evolve and grow through this journey.
