Triggers N-Z


​This A to Z trigger list does not claim to be all inclusive of all possible triggers let alone their potential interrelationships, but it does cover—in my opinion—the most likely ones for the majority of alcoholics. If your specific trigger or trigger interrelationship is not discussed in the following discussion, do not despair.

Instead, apply the same analysis approach used below to the additional ones: 1) research its definition and underlying causes; 2) find others alcoholics who have similar feelings and experiences (through internet searches and community meetings); 3) understand its related triggers and if, how, and in what progression they occur for you, and 4) research things you might do (“tips”) for dealing with that trigger/related triggers without alcohol. You will find something that works for you!

What to do if your trigger is not listed here?
