The Alcohol ReThink Podcast with Patrick Fox – Détails, épisodes et analyse

What if the real fear of giving up alcohol isn’t about the drink itself, but about what you think you’ll lose?

In this episode, Patrick Fox tackles the deeper fears men face when rethinking their relationship with alcohol, offering bold strategies to make the journey easier.

He breaks down the fear of missing out (FOMO), showing how it’s really tied to feelings of loss and grief, not the act of drinking.

Patrick dives into the fear of the unknown and the anxiety of losing an identity attached to alcohol. He challenges listeners to focus on the powerful gains of quitting rather than clinging to perceived losses while emphasising the importance of creating evidence for a stronger future and finding the right support to stay on course.

Do you find that people like to chip in with their opinion about your decision to stop drinking?

Do you find it annoying or perhaps draining?

On this week's episode of The Alcohol ReThink podcast, Patrick Fox discusses the reasons why men decide to stop drinking and the pushback they often receive from others.

He shares some of the stupid/unhelpful comments people make when someone stops drinking and provides insight into why they might say these things.

Patrick also highlights the importance of not taking these comments personally and owning how you feel.

He explores various reasons why alcohol can become a problem for men, such as drinking alone, hiding drinking habits, increased tolerance, and the impact on mental, physical, and emotional health.

This episode is all about perspective and focusing on what matters most, you and your sobriety.
