Once I was able to like, wrap my head around that idea, because at first it's like it can't be that simple. So just losing that charge of yeah, that happened, like, um, like my own sexual abuse. Yes, it was way outside of my preference. Right, like life is pain, suffering is optional and the suffering is the the psychological side of pain...
Can a shift in mindset and language truly revolutionize addiction recovery? Dr. Chad Davis thinks so. In this episode of 'Recovery Survey', host Brett Morris sits down with Dr. Davis, who shares his transformative journey from a tumultuous past to becoming an advocate for a new approach to sobriety. His book, 'The 12 Steps 2.0: Wake up and Smell the Coffee about the VERY Outdated Incurable Disease Model', is the culmination of a decade's worth of research and personal experience.
Dr. Davis opens up about his own struggles, including a traumatic childhood, numerous relocations, and battles with substance abuse. Despite these challenges, he emerged stronger, now holding a doctorate and a fresh perspective on addiction recovery. He passionately argues against the outdated disease model of addiction, advocating instead for the power of mindset, attitude, and language in fostering change. One of the standout points in this episode is Dr. Davis' emphasis on positive self-talk and empowering language.
He believes these tools can break the cycle of learned hopelessness that often traps individuals in addiction. His book isn't just another self-help guide; it's a movement aimed at empowering people to reclaim their lives. If you're seeking a new perspective on recovery or need a dose of inspiration, this conversation is a must-listen. Dr. Davis' insights offer a refreshing take on how we can all move forward with hope and empowerment.
