Have you ever wondered if you need to wear a certain label to get help with your drinking? Maybe you've thought, "I'm not really an alcoholic, but I don't feel like a normal drinker either."

 

You're not alone. This in-between space can feel incredibly isolating, especially when it seems like the only options are to identify as an alcoholic or keep struggling in silence. But what if the labels we've been told are essential to recovery are actually optional? What if they're doing more harm than good?

 

Tune in this week to discover why labels create a false black-and-white view of drinking problems when the reality exists on a spectrum. Whether you've struggled with labels or you're just curious about a different approach to changing your drinking habits, this episode will give you a fresh perspective on what's possible.
