Finding Balance: Mental Health and Addiction Resources in a Changed World

I truly believe that this whole covid coronavirus and everything that we've had to do in order to try and keep it from killing millions of us, it is opening up doors in the medical field and the mental health field and behavioral health field that have never been opened before.
Imagine waking up one day to find the world has shifted beneath your feet. That's the reality many faced during the pandemic, and it's the focus of this thought-provoking episode of 'Recovery.Now'. Host Brandi Beaver and her peers dive into the challenges of adapting to a new normal, especially for those grappling with mental health issues and addiction. They open up about their personal struggles with isolation and the importance of social support in these trying times.
The episode doesn't shy away from the hard truths but also shines a light on the unexpected positives that have emerged. For instance, the pandemic has made mental health and addiction resources more accessible than ever before. You'll hear about the Celebrate Recovery program, a faith-based initiative offering support to those in need, and the invaluable 211 resources that connect people to essential services.
The hosts also share practical self-care strategies to help you find your footing in this altered landscape. Whether it's through self-discipline or leaning on social networks, this episode is packed with actionable advice and heartfelt stories. Tune in for a blend of empathy, wisdom, and hope as you navigate your own path to recovery.
