Numb… Anxious… or Overwhelmed? What the Hell Is Going On With Your Feelings?

Numb, Anxious, or Overwhelmed: What the F Is Going On With Your Feelings After You Quit Drinking?* The hardest part of sobriety isn’t cravings… it’s the F-word. No, not that one. (Although you know it’s a personal favorite.) I’m talking about feelings. The ones you spent years numbing. The ones that come flooding in after you stop drinking. Or… the ones you can’t seem to feel at all. Whether you feel numb, anxious, totally overwhelmed, or like your emotions are playing hide-and-seek with your brain—this episode is for you. 💥 In this episode, I’ll walk you through: What’s really going on when the Pink Cloud fades Why your emotional overwhelm (or shutdown) is actually a sign of healing What Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS) has to do with it How emotional avoidance becomes emotional disconnection Why this phase is where many people relapse—not because of cravings, but because they don’t have the tools to deal And 3 powerful tools to help you feel again—without drowning in it You’ll walk away with a deep understanding of why your nervous system is acting up, the real reason you can’t explain how you feel (and why that’s perfectly okay), and my favorite strategies for handling emotions without shutting down, blowing up, or reaching for a drink. This is the work I do every day with my coaching clients. We don’t just “talk about feelings.” We build the emotional skill set that alcohol took away.
