Summary

Why do you crave alcohol and why is it so easy to go from drinking casually to habitually? Why is it hard to moderate your drinking? How does alcohol affect your sleep and why do you wake up at 3am after drinking? Why does alcohol make you feel relaxed and then more anxious the next morning? How does alcohol affect your brain, body, mood and stress hormones? Is it true that alcohol can be good for you in small doses? What are the symptoms of alcohol withdrawal? If you have questions about alcohol, William Porter, author of Alcohol Explained and Alcohol Explained 2: Tools for a Stronger Sobriety has the answers. As William writes, "Alcohol is a deceptive drug. It creates the illusion of pleasure and relaxation while causing the very anxiety and discomfort it purports to relieve." In today's episode, William Porter breaks down these questions and more. He provides a clear, scientific explanation of what happens to your body and mind when you consume alcohol. 4 Ways I Can Support You In Drinking Less + Living More Join The Sobriety Starter Kit, the only sober coaching course designed specifically for busy women.
