I have still been keeping up with my exercise routine, making sure I do at least 30 minutes of physical activity that can be considered exercise per day and usually I do much more than that, and then also making sure I close my activity ring on my apple watch, and sometimes you know it’s just as simple as doing some yoga at home and going on a long walk.
Imagine feeling tethered to a medication for 15 years. That's Cassandra's story with Adderall, a drug she relied on to manage ADHD, anxiety, and depression. In this episode, Cassandra opens up about her ongoing journey to recovery, revealing how she's been reducing her stimulant dosage and prioritizing exercise and therapy. Her honesty about the ups and downs offers a refreshing perspective for anyone grappling with similar struggles.
Cassandra doesn't just stop at sharing her story; she dives into practical treatment options like DBT therapy, supplementation, and support groups that have helped her along the way. She stresses the importance of facing life's challenges head-on, taking time to rest and recharge, and finding ways to overcome social anxiety. This episode isn't just about addiction—it's about resilience, hope, and the small steps that lead to big changes.
Whether you're on a similar path or supporting someone who is, Cassandra's insights offer a beacon of encouragement and practical advice.
