Another Drinking Podcast: On Drinking Identity
I remember the battle with my “drinking identity.”
It’s the big one newly sober people seem to have the most fears about. The “who would I be” if I didn’t drink?
The truth is, who you are when you’re drunk as hell isn’t you at all. It’s often an amplification of the worst and most irritating parts of your ego.
Blackouts? The guilties? The "ohhhh I fucked up."
Who is it that we want to hang on to so badly?
Here’s the thing about our society right now- we are becoming awake. The most innovative people right now are light, curious, and innovative.
None of those things happen under the sweltering suck of poison.
This is a podcast about my own personal experience, which I know many of you will find incredibly relatable.
