Ep. 167: All About (PAWS) Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome From Alcohol

What is Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome from alcohol and why is it important for you to understand it if you’re quitting drinking?

PAWS or Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome, refers to a series of symptoms that can arise after quitting alcohol and after you successfully navigate your first few weeks of sobriety. 

Think of it as a secondary phase of withdrawal from alcohol, which can hit a few weeks or months into recovery, or even further along. 

There’s a lot of misinformation out there in the sober community about what exactly Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome is, when it happens, how long it takes for PAWS to go away, what are the symptoms you might experience or how do you know if you have PAWS. 

So today we’re going to clear that all up. 

Gillian Tietz, the sober scientist behind the Sober Powered podcast is here to help me unravel the mystery of PAWS.
