Rethinking 'Normal Drinking': Insights from J.W. Collier

Choosing not to drink because we do not want it is the real gift. I am recovered because I do not want to drink like normal people.
What does 'normal drinking' really mean, and is it something to aspire to after recovery? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Sober Militia', J.W. Collier takes a hard look at the concept of 'normal drinking' and the misconceptions that often surround it. Rather than seeing sobriety as a burden, Collier frames it as a liberating choice that offers true freedom.
He challenges the dangerous idea that those in recovery should aim to drink like 'normal people', arguing that this mindset can lead to relapse and further struggles with alcohol. Collier also discusses the troubling trends of excessive and binge drinking, urging listeners to reconsider their relationship with alcohol altogether. If you've ever questioned what it means to drink 'normally' or are looking for a fresh perspective on sobriety, this episode is a must-listen.
With his blend of empathy and no-nonsense advice, J.W. Collier provides valuable insights for anyone on the path to an alcohol-free life.
