Stress Drinking: Does Alcohol Help or Hurt?

With nonstop news of crises—wildfires, war, and uncertainty—it’s easy to reach for a drink to take the edge off. But does alcohol relieve stress, or could it be making things worse? On this episode of The Mindful Drinking Podcast, host Derek Brown takes a closer look at the relationship between alcohol and stress. While drinking is often linked to relaxation, research suggests that in times of high stress, we tend to drink more—and that extra drink might not have the effect we’re hoping for. How does alcohol really impact our stress levels, and are there better ways to unwind? We may not be able to control the world around us, but we can choose how we respond. Join us for a conversation that just might change the way you think about stress drinking.
