Alcohol doesn’t just affect the body—it impacts mental health, too.

While it may feel like it helps in the moment, alcohol can:
• Increase anxiety over time
• Disrupt sleep
• Worsen depression symptoms

If you’re using alcohol to cope, you’re not alone—but there are healthier, more effective ways to manage stress.

✨ Team Member Tuesday: Meet Tayler ✨

Get to know Tayler Hiser — PRSS & Case Manager with Robert C. Byrd Clinic SHINE — and the heart behind her work in addiction medicine.

🔷 What inspired you to work in addiction medicine?
"Addiction has touched every part of my life. I grew up watching family members battle it. I saw friends get pulled in, and eventually, I struggled as well. It stole so many beautiful people and almost took my future. I began working in recovery while I was newly sober — before I fully understood it all — because I simply wanted to help. As I learned and grew in this field, it quietly healed parts of me I wasn’t ready to admit were broken. Now, over five years sober, being a PRSS working in addiction medicine has given me my future back."

🔷 What has this field taught you about resilience?
"Every day we work with patients who are fighting — fighting to stay sober, fighting to build a life that works for them in recovery, fighting to see themselves in a positive light. What I’ve learned is that it isn’t about being the strongest person in the room; it’s about being willing to keep going. The biggest impact often comes from the person who simply refuses to quit."

🔷 What keeps you motivated on your most challenging days?
"Personally, my family motivates me. My husband and our two boys lift me up every single day. 🥰 Professionally, it’s the wins — another day sober, a rekindled relationship, a first job in recovery, a place to call their own. We have the incredible privilege of walking with our patients and celebrating each victory alongside them."

🔷 How do you reduce stigma in your work and daily life?
"At work, I advocate fiercely for our patients and their treatment choices. I will gladly be the one who speaks up when their needs aren’t being heard. In my daily life, I share my story and my experiences as a PRSS to broaden understanding of substance use and recovery. The more we talk about it honestly, the less power stigma holds."

🔷 What makes this workplace special in the addiction medicine space?
“We’re a small team of deeply dedicated people who were called to this work — through personal, family, or professional experience. We’re here for the right reasons. Eight hearts. One purpose.” 🖤

Children don’t always have the words to say when something is wrong—but their behavior can offer important clues.

❗️It’s important to remember: these signs don’t always mean abuse. Many children experience challenges for different reasons. But when something feels off, it’s worth paying attention. ❗️

👉 Trust your instincts
👉 Take note of patterns
👉 Offer support when you can

Sometimes, simply checking in—whether with a child, a parent, or a caregiver—can open the door to getting someone the help they need. If you’re unsure what to do, you’re not alone.

Support and guidance are always available through trusted providers like Robert C. Byrd Clinic or the Child Help National Child Abuse Hotline (call or text 800-4-A-CHILD).

Not all alcohol use looks the same.

Alcohol may not be safe if you:
• Are pregnant or trying to become pregnant
• Take certain medications
• Have certain health conditions
• Are under 21
