When we start doing “the work”, it’s normal for your behavior to swing hard in the other direction. Emotions become more intense, old memories flood back, or you may feel like everyone needs to know how they’ve wronged you. This is the pendulum effect. We are learning how to do life without alcohol, and that process takes experimentation. In this episode, I explain why the pendulum effect happens, what to expect, the most common things I’ve observed, and 3 ways to start coping so the pendulum can begin to settle in the middle. You’ll learn about all the different things that are going on in your brain that make the healing process more intense. What to listen to next:

E247: Sober Sleep is the Best Sleep, But Not Right Away

E269: Autopilot Mode

E276: A Burst of Mental Clarity at 60 Days Sober (Cognitive Healing)
