Have you ever found yourself reacting strongly to a situation and not fully understanding why? Emotional triggers are deeply rooted responses—often tied to past trauma—that can make staying sober feel more difficult than expected. But with the right tools and awareness, you can learn to face them instead of escaping them.
In this episode of the Quit Drinking Alcohol Podcast, we explore what emotional triggers are, how they show up in sobriety, and how healing from past pain can strengthen your recovery and lead to personal growth.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- How to identify common emotional triggers in recovery.
- The link between past trauma and current emotional responses.
- Healthy, practical strategies to manage your emotions without turning to alcohol.
I’ll also share how recognizing and working through emotional triggers helped me move from reaction to reflection, and from pain to progress in my own sobriety journey.
What to Listen to Next:
Tune in to Episode 25, where we explore the financial benefits of sobriety—how quitting alcohol can lead to more financial freedom and security.
