Hangxiety: Confronting the Fear and Anxiety of Hangovers with Vic and Lucy
“Hangxiety is a result of drinking too much and hanging onto things that are out of alignment with your soul.”
Ever wondered why some Sundays feel like a rollercoaster of dread and nerves after a night out? Vic and Lucy dive deep into this very experience, known as 'hangxiety'. In this episode of Sober Awkward, they revisit their past, sharing personal tales of hungover Sundays spent battling fear and anxiety. Hangxiety isn’t just a catchy term; it’s a genuine struggle that kept them drinking and eventually led them to sobriety.
They explore the science behind it, explaining how an imbalance of glutamate and GABA in the brain ramps up anxiety levels. But it’s not all doom and gloom—Vic and Lucy also share practical tips on how to manage hangxiety, from meditation to finding supportive friends. And if you’re curious about why Vic ended up in a cult, you’ll get that story too! This episode is packed with honesty, humor, and valuable insights that many will find relatable.
So grab a cuppa and prepare to laugh and learn as they tackle hangxiety head-on.
