For many years, I had the unachievable dream of drinking in moderation. I knew I was drinking too much but I couldn't imagine my life without alcohol. The internet was useless at giving me solutions, and so was my doctor. Until I finally found a scientifically proven, extremely efficient way to successfully reach moderation! At first, I thought it was to good to be true, but more than 2 years later, I can confirm: it works. I tell you all about it in today's episode!

Hey there, podcast fam! In today's episode, we dive into a game-changing concept from my recovery journey: "TSM Wins."

What's a TSM Win?

If you're curious about The Sinclair Method (TSM), or maybe never heard of it, buckle up! TSM is a scientific gem that gradually kicks alcohol addiction to the curb, making moderate drinking effortlessly achievable. In this episode, we unpack the beauty of celebrating every TSM win, big or small, tangible or not.

My First TSM Win: The Mental Shift

Picture this: from daily drinking with zero alcohol-free days to a subtle shift. Discover my first TSM Win that wasn't about the quantity but the mental progress. A small thought change that laid the foundation for a holistic approach to recovery.

My Latest TSM Win: The Forgotten Decision

Fast forward two years, and I've reached "extinction" - no more addiction. Last week, I realised something mind-blowing during a celebratory dinner: I forgot to ask myself if I wanted to drink! The real win? It wasn't about staying sober; it was the ease, the nonchalance – a new normal.

Conclusion: Why TSM Rocks!

TSM isn't just about results; it's about the journey. Natural, instinctive, and sustainable. It's not a daily struggle; it's a lifestyle shift. This method, with an impressive 80% success rate, is a game-changer in the world of recovery.

Have you ever thought about the term 'alcoholic' and the heavy stigma it carries? Have you considered that there might be different shades to being addicted to alcohol, both physically and psychologically? 

Get ready to dig deeper, as I unravel the intricacies of alcohol use disorder. I am not here to point fingers or make assumptions, but to guide you through a set of insightful questions that might prompt you to understand your relationship with alcohol better. 

I’m not stopping at just understanding the problem, though. I discuss the fears associated with alcohol withdrawal, the looming risk of relapse, and the daunting challenge of lifelong abstinence. But I also present options that are not so black-and-white. 

Have you ever heard of the Sinclair Method? It's a groundbreaking treatment that offers hope for moderation, reducing drinking, and managing cravings. In this candid conversation, I aim to dismantle harmful stigmas and open up new possibilities for those grappling with alcohol use disorder.
