Ep 18: How To Beat Alcohol Addiction and ADHD with Ruari Fairbairns

Dive into the intersection of ADHD, personal growth, and changing your relationship with alcohol in this episode of the Therapised Podcast with Dr. Lalitaa Suglani.

In this episode, we’re joined by Ruari Fairbairns, founder of One Year No Beer, a movement dedicated to transforming people's lives by changing their relationship with alcohol.

Ruari, with a history of navigating the complexities of ADHD and its impact on behaviour and substance use, shares his personal and professional insights into the journey towards a life of greater focus, health, and fulfilment.

Together, we delve into the intricate dance between stress, ADHD, and compulsive behaviours, including substance misuse. We discuss the significance of childhood experiences, the power of subconscious beliefs in shaping our adult lives, and the transformative potential of confronting and rewriting these narratives.

Ruari also introduces us to the "Complete Control" program, a pioneering approach that empowers individuals to take charge of their relationship with alcohol through awareness, technology, and a deep dive into the drivers of compulsive behaviour.

Subscribe to our channel for more episodes that inspire, challenge, and guide you on your path to living a more authentic and empowered life.
