E296: The Science of Why We Drink: An Overview of Drinking Motives
Manage episode 510293664 series 2815261
I drink to have fun and socialize, I tell myself as I try to rationalize why I don’t have to quit drinking. Except “fun” and “socializing” looks like getting drunk on the coach with my husband and then staying up alone drinking more. It’s much easier to say I’m a wine connoisseur who enjoys the taste instead of I can’t cope with my emotions. In this episode, I’m discussing drinking motives and why we drink. By the end, you’ll have a better understanding of what alcohol is or was doing for you.
What to listen to next:
E211: the anticipation of a drink
E204: why some people develop a problem
