Is 'California Sober' a Safe Path? Insights from Demi Lovato's Journey

"To tell people that they could be sober and use in moderation is almost criminal, because I guarantee you, if that takes off, people will die thinking that they're California sober."
When pop star Demi Lovato described herself as 'California sober', it sparked a heated discussion about the safety and effectiveness of this approach to addiction recovery. But what does 'California sober' really mean? Essentially, it refers to abstaining from hard drugs while still using alcohol and marijuana. In this episode of the 'Sober is Dope' podcast, host POP Buchanan digs deep into this controversial topic.
Drawing from his own decade-long sobriety journey and the expertise of addiction specialists, POP examines whether 'California sober' can truly support long-term recovery. He discusses the potential risks of mixing substances, the importance of personalized treatment plans, and how celebrity influence can shape public perceptions of addiction recovery. With heartfelt anecdotes and expert advice, this episode offers a comprehensive look at harm reduction and moderation strategies.
Whether you're curious about alternative recovery methods or seeking solid advice for yourself or a loved one, this episode provides valuable insights and thought-provoking perspectives.
