Decoding 'Normal Drinking': Insights from Lewis David

If you worry about whether you are a normal drinker or you think I'd like to be a normal drinker, I'd like to invite you now to let go of that thinking.
Ever wondered if you can ever drink like a 'normal' person again? In this episode of The Alcohol Recovery Show, Lewis David dives into the elusive concept of normal drinking. With years of experience supporting people with varying degrees of alcohol dependence, Lewis sheds light on why the idea of normal drinking is so subjective. What one person considers normal can be vastly different from another's perspective, influenced by individual backgrounds and experiences.
Lewis encourages listeners to think deeply about their personal goals rather than chasing the often ambiguous idea of being a 'normal drinker'. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on specific outcomes that benefit your health, finances, and overall well-being. Tune in to hear Lewis's thoughtful insights and practical advice on how to navigate your journey toward moderation or sobriety.
Whether you're trying to cut back or quit entirely, this episode offers valuable guidance to help you achieve a healthier, happier life.
