Social Media: How Safe Are Your Social Media Feeds From Alcoholism?

Clair asks: “Can the numerous memes, photos and posts on social media glorifying alcohol affect us subconsciously even though we are determined not to drink.” The key here is the VOW. If you've taken the VOW to be someone that doesn't drink alcohol, then you seek out a mentor, a community, a philosophy - and you get to work. You uncover the TRUTH about alcohol, you raise AWARENESS of that truth, and then learn how to have FREEDOM from alcohol. If you do this the right way, then it doesn’t matter how many alcohol memes, photos and social media posts come your way because each intrusion creates a feeling of disgust and anger. If you don't take the VOW, don't find a community, don't absorb the philosophy of TRUTH, AWARENESS and FREEDOM- then you are less likely to do the work, and it's more likely that all of these memes, photos and social media posts will create such an internal friction that you will succumb and drink. The pain of doing so is nowhere near as damaging as the pain of not receiving those memes, photos and social media posts because if we get to that space, that means we are alone. I answer this topic in more depth on today’s episode of the Alcohol & Addiction Podcast, which you can access right here.
