Sober Awkward New! Sober Awkward Top Ten: 10 x Ways to Stop Alcohol Cravings
When life gets overwhelming and your brain whispers “a cold beer would fix this,” is it really a craving… or just a memory from the old you?
This week, Vic dives headfirst into the wonderfully chaotic world of those bloody annoying cravings — or as she now calls them, ghostly flashbacks from her rosé-soaked past. In this bite size episode, Vic shares her own awkward evolution, from life and soul of the party to calm-ish, crime-drama-watching, Scrabble-playing sober warrior and reframes what cravings actually are.
Then, it’s time for the countdown:
A Top of the Pops–style list (minus the glitter and synth) of the Top Ten Best Ways to Deal With Alcohol Cravings.
From star-fishing on the floor to telling your cravings to politely piss off, this episode is packed with honest advice, sharp one-liners, and some very questionable references to injured swamp donkeys.
So pop on your headphones, put the kettle on, and remember: cravings aren’t commands. They’re just echoes of a past self and you don’t have to dance to that tune anymore.
Enjoy!
