Millie Gooch on quitting drinking and lockdown coping
Lockdown and drinking go together like wine and cheese...or do they? Given the unusual situation we find ourselves in, perhaps it’s not surprising that booze sales have rocketed. However Millie Gooch knows the problems with using alcohol as a coping mechanism only too well. After finding that her binge drinking was leaving her poleaxed by anxiety she gave it up, and started the Sober Girl Society, an online community of other teetotal women. I loved talking to her about that - as well as how she managed to write a book in lockdown, sober dating, peer pressure, anxiety management and more. She has some really great, practical advice - I hope you find it as interesting (and useful) as I did.
