Ep. 114: Alcohol, Insomnia + Sleep In Sobriety

What questions do you have about alcohol, insomnia and sleep in sobriety? 

You might be wondering…

• Does alcohol help you get to sleep? 
• What contributes to good sleep? 
• Why am I so tired in early sobriety?
• What can I do if I can’t sleep early sobriety?
• When will I start sleeping well after I stop drinking? 

So here’s the big question: does alcohol help you sleep? 

Nope. Alcohol is a sedative that makes you feel sleepy, but it actually significantly decreases your sleep quality (and leads directly to those awful 3am hangxiety wake ups). 

In fact, a Sleep Foundation study found that for women less than one drink decreases your sleep quality by 9.3%, one drink decreases your sleep quantity by 24% and more than one drink decreases your sleep quality by 39.2%.
