About this listen

Quitting drinking doesn’t mean life stops throwing curveballs—it just means you feel every emotion more clearly. Anger and frustration can be some of the toughest to navigate, especially when alcohol was your go-to coping tool. But learning to manage these emotions is a powerful part of building lasting sobriety.

In this episode of the Quit Drinking Alcohol Podcast, we dive into the emotional landscape of early recovery—why anger often feels amplified and how to respond in ways that are healthy, honest, and empowering.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • Why anger can feel more intense after quitting alcohol.
  • How to identify, process, and express frustration without reaching for a drink.
  • Practical tools like breathwork, journaling, and movement to help release emotional tension.

I’ll also share my personal experiences with anger in early sobriety—and the breakthroughs that came from finally facing it head-on.


What to Listen to Next:

In Episode 29, we’ll celebrate how far you’ve come by talking about the importance of recognizing your sober milestones—and how honoring your progress helps keep you moving forward.
