Stress is a main reason many of us drink and it’s a big trigger for relapse after getting sober. In this episode you’ll learn all about cortisol- how it’s released, how chronic stress and heavy drinking disrupt our stress response, and when your stress response system may recover in sobriety. I’ll explain what happens with cortisol in withdrawal, in early sobriety, and give you a timeline for when this should normalize.  What to listen to next: E204: can anyone get addicted to alcohol? E199: frustration tolerance Sober Support: Community & Meetings: Living a Sober Powered Life https://www.soberpowered.com/membership Weekly emails on Fridays https://www.soberpowered.com/email  Work with me: Anger Management Coaching https://www.soberpowered.com/anger Sober coaching https://www.soberpowered.com/sober-coaching Thank you for supporting this show by supporting my sponsors.
