Remote Work and Rising Alcohol Use: Dr. Jacques' Take

But what I noticed was over The Last Two Months, a tremendous spike in the requests I'm getting for appointments for people who are suffering tremendously from addiction or substance use, substance abuse, substance dependence, and the tragedy of that is that it's an outcome of what we've been going through for The Last Year, year and a half.
Remote work has become a staple of our lives, but it’s brought along some unexpected challenges. In this episode of 'Doc Jacques: Your Addiction Lifeguard', Dr. Jacques de Broekert dives into the troubling trend of increased daytime drinking. With the lines between work and home blurring, many have turned to alcohol as a way to manage stress, leading to a surge in addiction cases. Dr.
Jacques unpacks the dangerous link between trauma and substance abuse, offering practical advice on how to seek help and break free from harmful habits. He shares heartfelt insights and encourages listeners to reach out for support, emphasizing that no one has to face this battle alone. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or looking to support a loved one through their recovery journey.
