Dr. Robb Kelly: Rethinking Addiction and Rewiring the Brain

Don't believe the lies in your head, but actually check people out who have been there, done that, and, Dr. Rob Kelly, it's not a bad starting point, may I say.
Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get stuck in the cycle of addiction while others manage to break free? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Steps to Sobriety', host Stephan Neff sits down with Dr. Robb Kelly, a leading expert in addiction recovery, to tackle this very question. Dr. Kelly shares his compelling personal journey through addiction and how it inspired him to pioneer new, personalized approaches to treatment.
He believes that the root of addiction lies not just in the substance itself, but in unresolved trauma and the way our brains are wired. Dr. Kelly debunks common myths, like the idea that drug addiction is hereditary, and emphasizes the importance of addressing the underlying causes of addiction rather than just the symptoms. He also sheds light on how alcohol can be a crutch for social anxiety and the moment of realization when one can't stop drinking.
This episode is packed with valuable insights on the limitations of traditional treatment centers and the power of self-help in recovery. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers a fresh perspective and practical advice for rewiring the brain and breaking free from the cycle of addiction.
