Breaking Free: The Hidden Addictions

Send us a text

Socially acceptable addictions like alcohol and food hide in plain sight while society celebrates escaping emotions and mocks those trying to break free.

• Most addicts don't look like stereotypical "addicts" but are regular people numbing themselves with wine and food
• Food and alcohol work on the same neurotransmitters, creating powerful dopamine loops
• Childhood conditioning often links food with both comfort and celebration
• Addictions hide behind identities like "foodie culture" and "wine mom culture" 
• Common triggers for using food and alcohol include shame, loneliness, rejection, and boredom
• Willpower alone cannot overcome addiction without addressing underlying emotional issues
• Regulation habits like breathwork, prayer, and cold exposure can replace numbing habits
• Sobriety isn't just about abstaining but about being emotionally present in your life
• Building a community of like-minded people provides crucial support for recovery
• The goal is to build a life you don't need to escape from through numbing
