So, whatever the precise definition of the word may be, we call this plain insanity.
Ever felt like you're caught in a never-ending loop of destructive habits? In 'Plain Insanity', Joe McDonald tackles the chaotic world of addiction in his podcast, 'Position of Neutrality'. Joe dives deep into the irrational behavior that defines addiction, where people trade everything for a fleeting sense of relief. He challenges the old saying that insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.
Instead, he highlights how addiction skews our sense of proportion, making temporary release seem worth any consequence. Joe also touches on the flimsy excuses addicts use to justify their first drink, despite knowing the fallout. He reflects on the tough decisions involved in choosing sobriety and the common struggle of pinpointing a sobriety date. This episode offers a raw and honest look at the realities of addiction, providing valuable insights for anyone grappling with or supporting someone through this journey.
