For some people, one or two glasses of wine a day turns to three or four once they no longer had to show up at the office every day.
Ever wondered if controlled drinking can actually work? In this special edition of 'Recovery in the Middle Ages', hosts Mike and Nat tackle this burning question head-on. They dive into two timely stories: a critique of the concept of drinking in moderation and the evolving landscape of addiction recovery as workers return post-lockdown. Mike and Nat bring their signature blend of humor and honesty to a serious discussion about the potential pitfalls of controlled drinking.
They highlight how the pandemic has altered workplace dynamics, with some employees grappling with new addictions picked up during lockdown. The episode also features a quirky segment on a UFO sighting linked to a mutilated cow—just to keep things interesting! Mike and Nat don't shy away from dispelling myths and misconceptions about addiction. They emphasize the importance of seeking help and prioritizing health.
As Mike notes, 'For some people, one or two glasses of wine a day turns to three or four once they no longer had to show up at the office every day'. This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating sobriety or supporting someone who is. Tune in for an engaging, informative, and occasionally humorous take on addiction recovery.
