  • I resonate a lot with your story. I also never hit rock bottom. I was excelling in my career and I had a fulfilling home life. I just couldn’t stop thinking about the long term health consequences and having my son born made those thought impossible to ignore.

    When I decided to quit, I tried to consume as much anti-drinking media as possible. I landed on The Happy Sober Podcast as my main source. I listened to all 200 episodes in the first 30 days and it helped reprogram the way I thought about alcohol. Craig Beck does a good job of revealing the tricks alcohol plays on the brain. He also talks about when he tried AA and it sounds a lot like your experience with the meetings. I don’t think the meetings are for everyone. You’ve got to find what works for you.
