One in four Americans are aware of the sober curious movement, and 34% said they were trying to drink less in 2023. To chat about this, I called on Dr. Sarah Wakeman, the senior medical director for substance use disorder at Mass General Brigham and a national thought leader in treatment for substance use disorders. In this episode, we define sober curiosity, learn about alcohol use disorder, and how to decide whether a sober-curious lifestyle is right for you. Plus: How to talk to friends and family about your alcohol choices, whether there's truth to the "red wine is good for you" line we've been hearing for years, how many drinks are acceptable under the U.S. Dietary Guidelines, and how alcohol really impacts on the body.
