E226: Using Alcohol to Escape Your Life
Manage episode 423514519 series 2815261
Many of us use alcohol to turn off our brain, escape our problems, or check out, but escapism is actually associated with more intense drinking and lower life satisfaction. In this episode you’ll learn about the different theories behind escapism, why we’re doing this, and how it makes our problems worse. I hope that this episode can help you make some connections so you realize drinking isn’t helping you. I’ll also share a personal story of when I drank to escape and how that went for me.
What to listen to next
E213: self care is not temporarily turning off your brain
E214: self-medication
E216: 4 types of impulsivity
