It's remarkably screwed up... It keeps you from looking at the benefits of change as well.
Ever wondered if the benefits of heavy substance use are really worth it? In this episode of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions', hosts Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar take a hard look at the myths surrounding addiction and recovery. They argue that addiction isn't a disease and that traditional treatments like rehab and 12-step programs might do more harm than good. Instead, they challenge listeners to question their beliefs and consider alternative paths to recovery.
The hosts dive into the biochemistry of substance use, exploring how it affects the body and mind, and examine the intricate relationship between anxiety and addiction. This episode isn't just about debunking myths; it's about encouraging a fresh perspective on what it means to recover from addiction. Whether you're struggling with substance use yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a thought-provoking look at why we need to rethink our approach to addiction and recovery.
