"When I'm focused on being rightly related to God and rightly related to my fellow man, and serving God and serving my fellow man, then there is a peace in me, a natural high, if you will, much greater than any high I ever got when I was using opiates."
What happens when a psychologist who’s battled addiction himself opens up about his journey? In this episode of 'Recovery Lab', hosts Drew Hasson and Daniel Anderson sit down with Dr. Don Faucett to discuss his personal path from addiction to recovery. Dr. Faucett shares candidly about his struggles, offering a rare glimpse into the mind of someone who’s been on both sides of the therapist's chair.
His story is not just about overcoming addiction but also about the science behind it and how understanding our brains can help us build new, healthier pathways. He dives into the dangers of opioids like fentanyl, explaining why they’re so addictive and how they wreak havoc on lives. But it’s not all science; Dr. Faucett emphasizes the importance of faith and service in the recovery process.
He believes that being rightly related to God and helping others are key components to staying sober. The conversation is filled with practical tips for those on their own recovery journey, making it a must-listen for anyone affected by addiction, whether personally or through a loved one. This episode is a blend of personal stories, expert insights, and actionable advice, wrapped in an empathetic and hopeful dialogue.
