Going sober will make you happier, healthier, wealthier, slimmer and sexier. Despite all of these upsides, it’s easier said than done. This
inspirational, aspirational and highly relatable narrative champions the benefits of sobriety; combining the author’s personal experience, factual reportage, contributions from experts and self-help advice.
Ever sworn off alcohol for a month and found yourself drinking by the 7th? Think there’s ‘no point’ in just one drink? Welcome! There are millions of us. Catherine Gray was stuck in a hellish whirligig of Drink, Make horrible decisions, Hangover, Repeat. She had her fair share of ‘drunk tank’ jail cells and topless-in-a-hot-tub this book goes beyond the binges and blackouts to deep-dive into uncharted territory: What happens after you quit drinking? This
gripping, heart-breaking and witty book takes us down the rabbit-hole of an alternative reality.
A life with zero hangovers, through sober weddings, sex, Christmases and breakups. In The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober, Catherine Gray shines a light on society’s drink-pushing and talks to top neuroscientists and psychologists about why we drink, delving into the science behind what it does to our brains and more than a tale from the netherworld of addicted drinking, this book is about the escape, and why a sober life can be more intoxicating than you ever imagined. Whether you’re a hopelessly devoted drinker, merely sober-curious, or you’ve already ditched the drink,
you will love this book.
