Sophie was over 3 years sober when she thought she could moderate her drinking. What started as a few drinks spiralled, with her wedding becoming the catalyst for falling back into old habits. Going into this episode, I assumed we’d focus on that turning point, but as I spoke to Sophie, I realised her story ran so much deeper.
An eating disorder that began in her teenage years. Postnatal depression that led to multiple suicide attempts. A lingering sense of shame and resentment towards herself.
Trigger warning: This episode discusses postnatal depression, suicide, eating disorders, and substance abuse.
The book Sophie recommends is 'alcohol explained' by William Porter
For addiction she also recommends 'In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction' by Gabor Maté
