Have you ever questioned the idea that addiction is a lifelong disease? In this episode of The Freedom Model for Addictions, hosts Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar take a bold stance against conventional addiction treatment methods. They argue that addiction isn't a permanent condition but rather a temporary issue that can be overcome with the right mindset and approach. This episode dives deep into debunking the myth of powerlessness often perpetuated by traditional recovery programs like the 12-step model.
Mark and Michelle emphasize the importance of personal empowerment and choice in the journey to recovery, challenging listeners to rethink their relationship with addiction. By promoting a non-disease perspective, they aim to reduce the stigma surrounding addiction and offer a fresh, liberating approach to overcoming it. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice for breaking free from the addiction trap.
