Is moderation possible? Subscribe to This Naked Mind on YouTube - https://goo.gl/ZJQAZ8 I believe some people can moderate - either alcohol has not become that important to them, so drinking less is easy OR they are willing to take the time and effort to do it. Visit https://thisnakedmind.com to start reading This Naked Mind free. For me, the entire key to freedom is changing my perception. Changing my thought and neural pathways so that my perspective is no longer; I don't get to drink but I don't have to drink. I don’t want to drink. That type of freedom - having alcohol become small, irrelevant and non-existent in your life is what I want for myself. Changing my perception to 'I don’t actually want to put that in my body' means I always don't want to put it in my body. That means that the question of is moderation possible became non-existent. 6 Vital Things to Understand When You Want To Know Is Moderation Possible 1) Moderation means you are always making decisions. For me, the single decision to stop means freedom from the exhaustion of constantly wondering is moderation possible. 2) Alcohol creates a thirst for itself (a.k.a. Tolerance). This is true for any addictive substance. Substances are addictive because they stimulate (artificially) the pleasure circuit of your brain. As soon as the substance begins to leave your system your mood plunges further than it was before you started. Your brain actually turns down the artificial stimulation from alcohol in order to maintain balance (homeostasis). This is tolerance. It is what causes us to increase the amount we drink (we chase the initial ‘high’). At the end of my drinking days I had such a high tolerance I barley ever felt drunk or even tipsy. The fact that alcohol, by its very nature, makes you want (need) more alcohol means moderation doesn't physiologically make sense. The effect of drinking one drink is to want another drink. I remember starting to think about my next drink (and feeling upset if I wasn't planning to allow myself one) well before the drink in my hand was empty. This is a horrible flaw of moderation. Eventually the two glasses you are sticking to won’t have any impact whatsoever, so what’s the point? And tolerance is actually your body (and mind) protecting itself by negating the effects of alcohol. Alcohol by its very nature causes you to need more of it to feel the same level of intoxication - which is completely at odds with moderation. Is moderation possible on a chemical level - no, it isn't. 3) Alcohol affects your brain, impairing its ability to make good decisions. The truth is that even a single drink changes your state of mind - so the next drink doesn't sound like such a bad idea. This is because even a single drink impairs your decision-making abilities by harming your pre-frontal cortex. This is the part of your brain that weighs consequences and makes decisions. It regulates the more primal / animal parts of your brain and allows you self-control. Drinking takes this ability away. Drinking deadens your brain’s reasoning power stealing its ability to make sensible decisions. The very thing you are moderating actually steals your ability to moderate. 4) Alcohol makes you thirsty. This is an obvious, but overlooked flaw in the moderation theory and a subject we gloss over when questioning is moderation possible. Alcohol is a diuretic (it makes you pee). This means your body is more dehydrated after you drink an alcoholic drink than before. Guess what? That makes another drink even more tempting. 5) Alcohol numbs your pleasure response to natural stimuli. When the brain’s pleasure center is repeatedly, artificially over-stimulated by alcohol, it produces a counter-chemical, dynorphin, which turns down the stimulation. Put very simply this means that over time, because dynorphin is being constantly released, you no longer enjoy drinking like you once did. 6) Liking vs. Wanting. Over time, the wanting aspect of drinking and the liking aspect of drinking are no longer in sync. I experienced cravings for alcohol when I knew it would make me miserable - when I didn't even want to drink it. The misery here comes from desperately wanting and craving something you no longer even like. I found myself wondering is moderation possible and was able to realize that moderating a nasty, addictive poison is not, in truth, worth my time, brain space, or energy.
