In this episode of The Sober Connection, Abi delves into the intricate relationship between dopamine and alcohol, explaining how the anticipation of drinking creates a powerful dopamine loop that can lead to dependence.
She discusses the emotional flatness often experienced in early sobriety and emphasises the importance of understanding the brain's reward system.
Abi provides insights into how to naturally boost dopamine levels through movement, novelty, connection, and purpose, ultimately revealing that sobriety can lead to a richer, more fulfilling life.
