You're listening to the Recovery Happy Hour Podcast. Hi guys welcome to recovery happy hour where we talk about life beyond the

bottle and what happens after we get sober I'm your host Tricia thanks for

Stigma.

We're talking about stigma today.

You know, this podcast was started

really for two main reasons.

One is to let people know that life does go on once you stop drinking,

and two is to fight back against the stigma of alcoholism or problematic drinking or whatever you want to label it. The stigma is that

alcoholics are total fuckups that live under a bridge with a bottle and a

brown paper bag. I mean I've probably talked about this on every single episode so

about 20 times you've heard me talk about how so many of us struggle with alcohol

while living seemingly normal lives.

So where does a stigma come from?

And why are we still fighting this?

Stigma defined is a mark of disgrace associated with a particular circumstance, quality, or person.

So it's having a shitty reputation.

And alcoholism historically gives people shitty reputations.

Okay, so let's take this one step further.

What about if you've quit drinking?
