It's Not About the Alcohol

Ep8: Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome--What it is and how to deal with it


Listen Later

Even with detox symptoms, early sobriety feels amazing when compared to active alcohol use disorder. The pink bubble is nature's nod to our efforts.

However, we call it "recovery" for a reason. It takes time for brain chemistry to recalibrate. The reasons we thought we needed a drink are now waiting to be dealt with. 

Post-actute withdrawal syndrome is a collection of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual symptoms that serve as invitations to heal. Having the right tools will accelerate your recovery and give you the resilience to stay focused on your goals so that you can live your best life.
