So why not if it's free and it doesn't take up much room in your life? Maybe take one more minute out of your day and text that addict.
Is addiction written in our genes, or is it shaped by our environment? In this thought-provoking episode of the 'Ashes to Awesome' podcast, host Chuck LaFlange dives headfirst into the age-old nature vs nurture debate, focusing on its relevance to addiction and recovery. Chuck doesn't just skim the surface; he examines the intricate web of factors that contribute to addiction, from genetic predispositions to environmental influences.
He also touches on the often-overlooked link between ADHD and addiction, offering insights into how these conditions can intertwine. The discussion doesn't stop there. Chuck takes a critical look at the role big pharma plays in the addiction epidemic, shedding light on how pharmaceutical companies have influenced the landscape of addiction and recovery. Throughout the episode, Chuck emphasizes the crucial need for support systems and reaching out for help.
He highlights the benefits of online therapy and drug testing kits, reminding listeners that recovery is a journey best taken with a strong support network. As Chuck poignantly puts it, 'Reach out to a friend, reach out to a family member, call into detox, go to a meeting, do whatever the hell it is you've got to do to get that journey started, because it is so much better on the other side'.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complex interplay between genetics and environment in the context of addiction.
