Colleen O on Trauma, Addiction, and the Path to Healing with Dayna Keyes

So that's like I said, how things can stack up, and I don't think I was born an alcoholic, but I think I became one.
Imagine having your life turned upside down by an accident, only to find a way back through the labyrinth of addiction and trauma. That's the journey Colleen O shares in this episode of 'Radio Rehab with Dayna Keyes'. As a longtime friend of Dayna and someone with years of sobriety under her belt, Colleen brings a wealth of experience and insight into the conversation.
She opens up about how a car accident became a pivotal point in her struggle with addiction and how she navigated the complex relationship between trauma and substance abuse. Colleen and Dayna dive deep into how childhood experiences can set the stage for addiction, touching on the often-overlooked concept of dissociation. They discuss how dissociation can affect relationships and recovery, making it a crucial topic for anyone dealing with addiction.
Colleen also highlights the significance of alternative healing practices like acupuncture and massage in her recovery journey. These methods, often stigmatized or misunderstood, played a vital role in addressing her underlying trauma and physical pain. But it's not just about the therapies; it's about the people who stand by you. Colleen emphasizes the power of community and support, sharing how these elements have been instrumental in her recovery.
She talks candidly about breaking the stigma around brain surgery and alternative healing, urging listeners to keep an open mind. This episode isn't just a story; it's a testament to resilience and the multifaceted approach needed for recovery. Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Colleen's story offers hope, practical advice, and a reminder that healing is possible.
Tune in to hear Colleen and Dayna tackle these tough topics with honesty and a touch of humor, making this episode both enlightening and uplifting.
