We get a lot of emails from people saying they are still drinking but are concerned they may have a problem, or are trying not to drink and listen to this show as one of their tools. We are so grateful that the show helps people on their journey towards, or in, sobriety. One pattern we see is that the arc of contemplating “am I or aren’t I an alcoholic?” looks very similar for most people. This is especially true of people who are earlier on in this process and who have yet to experience many outward ramifications from their drinking.
We can spend a lot of time thinking about whether or not we are truly an alcoholic, and this is an obstacle to taking action about your drinking.
On this show we talk about what this contemplative arc looks like, for many people, and provide a few resources that can be helpful in finding community that can help (because, as we talk about all the time on this show, community is the key to getting sober).
We mention the following online communities in this show, and we encourage you to check them out! If you want more information on the Booze Free Brigade ("BFB") and how to join this private FB community, please email us at thebubblehour@gmail.com and we can tell you how.
The other resources we mention on the show are as follows:
