Facing Sobriety: The Reality of Dry Drunk Syndrome

When they stop drinking they get cranky. And mean. You end up walking on eggshells even more because you never know what kind of mood they'll be in and the selfish, narcissistic behavior actually gets worse.
Imagine thinking sobriety would solve all your problems, only to find that your loved one is still displaying selfishness and stubbornness. This episode of 'Love Over Addiction' hosted by Michelle Anderson dives into a lesser-known issue called dry drunk syndrome. It's a scenario where someone stops drinking but continues to exhibit troubling behaviors like anger, blame, and a lack of accountability. Sobriety was supposed to be the fix, right?
But now you're left walking on eggshells even more, unsure of their mood swings. Michelle explains that this is a common yet challenging phase in recovery. She shares how understanding dry drunk syndrome can help you set better boundaries and seek the right support. If you're dealing with a loved one who's sober but still struggling, this episode offers practical advice and empathy. Tune in to learn how to navigate this complex aspect of addiction recovery and build healthier relationships.
