Talking about it is the only way to free yourself from shame and stigma of over-drinking, and if you do, it allows the people to come after you to also have a voice.
Ever wondered why some people prefer to drink alone at home? In this episode of 'Sober Awkward', Vic and Lucy tackle this tricky topic head-on. They explore why drinking often retreats behind closed doors, whether it's due to parenting stress, feelings of shame, or simply the perceived safety of one's own space.
The hosts dive into the twisted mindset that can develop when drinking at home becomes a habit, and they highlight the warning signs that your drinking might be spiraling out of control. From the impact on family life to the normalization of alcohol in society, no stone is left unturned. But it's not all heavy stuff—Vic and Lucy sprinkle in their trademark humor and honesty, making even the toughest topics feel approachable.
Plus, there's a hilarious DJ blooper from Vic that you won't want to miss. If you're sipping wine on the sofa more often than you'd like to admit, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to find out how to set boundaries and seek help if alcohol is starting to take over your life.
