You're not sure you want to quit.
You just know something has to change.
1:1 coaching with E.B. Ferdig
You're not drinking that much. Probably 1–2 drinks most nights. It's how you unwind, how you show up to social things, how you take the edge off a hard day.
You don't feel like the term "alcoholic" fits — and still, your relationship with alcohol causes you discomfort.
You're tired of the cycle. You're just not sure you're ready to call it a problem.
"The edge of the day I thought I was taking off with wine was actually the edge of my own truth." — E.B. Ferdig
What's happening in your body isn't in your head
Women process alcohol differently than men. Lower body water, less of the ADH enzyme — the effects hit harder and last longer. In perimenopause and menopause, alcohol directly worsens the symptoms you're already managing: disrupted sleep, hot flashes, mood swings, weight changes. That guilt you feel the morning after? Part of it is biochemistry.
Your body is telling you something real. anymore
