Another difficult subject to cover but it needs to be talked about because slips can be so demoralising if they happen. Louisa's start to sobriety wasn't a smooth one and that's something that she is very open about. There were a few false starts before sobriety stuck for her. In this episode, she looks into how to pick yourself back up if you have had a slip so that it doesn't mark the end of your want to go sober.

Disclaimer: although this series hasn't been designed for dependant drinkers, relapses and slips can be fatal if you have a physical alcohol dependancy. Please seek medical support if you suspect you have a physical reliance on alcohol and seek help if you are struggling.
