Straight Talk About Alcoholism Signs and Symptoms

Have you ever Googled "symptoms of alcoholism"?

Have you ever wondered about the physical toll drinking takes on your body? Or about the earliest sign of alcohol abuse and/or dependence?

On this show we'll have a candid discussion about the signs and symptoms of alcohol abuse and alcoholism; they are subtler than you may think, and there are early signs that often are ignored.

Through the power of story and conversation, including two guests who will share their own tale of the descent into alcohol dependence, we will shine a light on how alcohol abuse and eventual dependence impacts our bodies.

Thank you so much to our guests Amy and Bill for sharing their experience, strength and hope with us all.

Episode 5- Creating Your Holiday Bubble and Our First "Call-In" Show Where we answer questions!

The holidays -no matter what religious affiliation you are- are difficult times for people in recovery, or struggling to get sober.

Everywhere we turn are ads on television for alcohol, holiday and office parties, and images of people drinking jumping out of the woodwork.  Facebook posts are full of images of people drinking (or taking pictures of their drinks - that one always amazes us).

Tonight's episode is all about creating your "Holiday Bubble" - how to keep yourself safe (and hopefully happy!) during the holidays.

It is also our first "call-in" show, which we are really excited about, where people called in with real-life dilemmas about how to make it through their first sober (or not even their first) sober holiday.

We shared stories, cautionary tales, tips and advice and laughed a little along the way.

If YOU have questions for us about how to survive this holiday season, you can always email us at:  thebubblehour@gmail.com

We'd love to hear from you.

Enjoy tonight's show!  P.S. - There is a glitch on the show with a silent gap that lasts for about a minute - sorry - it's our first time doing a call in show ... please be patient and wait.  :)
