Why is it so hard to stop after that first drink? And why can’t we be ‘Normal Drinkers’ no matter how good our intentions? Today Vic and Lucy delve deeper into everything moderation. Is it science based, a cultural thing or just that some humans are born to over drink? For their entire drinking careers, both Vic and Lucy tried and tried to moderate, but they both always, without fail, failed! So how long can you fail at something before deciding you can’t fix it on your own? and are other forces at play after having that first drink, is it environment? drinking culture? Trauma? or just a naughty pixie? Join them for some sober giggles in this brutally honest sobriety podcast.
