After we quit drinking, our social experiences actually improve, because we are more able to articulate what we're doing, our thoughts and our thinking and conversations are better and stronger, and we remember the events that happen, which is pretty amazing.
Ever wondered why some people go back to drinking after a month of sobriety? In this episode of 'Sober Militia', J.W. Collier dives into this puzzling question. Inspired by the end of Dry January, Collier explores the reasons behind returning to alcohol after experiencing the benefits of a sober month. He shares his own journey, where short-term breaks from drinking often led to even more consumption later on.
Through personal anecdotes and reflections, Collier challenges the common belief that sobriety has to be a struggle. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of self-discovery and making peace with addiction. The episode also touches on how sobriety can enhance social experiences and create more meaningful memories. If you're curious about your own relationship with alcohol or considering an alcohol-free lifestyle, this episode offers plenty of food for thought.
