I Spent 5 Years Trying to Moderate My Drinking
I drank every night. Sometimes a little, sometimes a lot
I jolted awake at 3am with anxiety
I woke up ashamed of myself either because I drank too much and couldn’t control myself yet again, or because I had a few drinks but didn’t feel satisfied
I spent each morning at work asking Google, “how do you know if you’re an alcoholic?” or “how do I moderate my drinking?”
I resolved to not drink that night
But by lunch time my hangover would fade and I’d convince myself why I should drink
Then I drank again that night and repeated the cycle
I wanted nothing more than to learn how to moderate my drinking
I tried everything
Until one day I realized I can’t change the way I drink
And then I was finally free

“Thank you. I am a 60+ psychologist who has struggled to beat the alcohol cycle even with all my professional knowledge. You have provided critical additional research info re the neurochemistry of addiction that has enabled me to do this. I am personally eternally grateful. The rehab industry really needs to pay attention to your work. They would be far more successful. You must have changed many lives, go girl!” -NG
The only sober podcast that combines science and lived experience
When I accepted that I had to quit drinking I wanted to understand why me
On my day 2, when my hangover had faded, I started to look into the research on addiction. I was terrified that I was a weak-willed loser with no self-control and I had to know if that was true
I read daily and learned why I woke up with 3am anxiety, why I obsessed about my drinking, why I was always so overwhelmed, why my daily life seemed unfulfilling, and why no matter what I did I could not be satisfied with 1 drink
This helped me let go of the shame and self-blame
One morning when I was around 8 months sober I woke up and thought,
“everyone needs to know this”
and I launched the Sober Powered Podcast that day
I had no idea what I was doing, so I had to zoom call myself to record, but I had to get this information out in the world
My biochemistry background allows me to find and interpret the primary literature, while my lived experience serves as the connector between the research and what you might be experiencing with your own drinking. No one covers the science of alcohol this comprehensively.
