I need to keep up with a daily, vigilant application of these principles if I want to continue to experience ongoing recovery.
Relapse is a word that can send shivers down the spine of anyone on the road to recovery. In this episode of 'Recovery (Sort Of)', hosts Billy and Jason take a deep dive into what relapse really means and how to handle it. They don't shy away from the tough questions: Can relapse be prevented? Are 12-step programs too lenient or too harsh when it comes to relapse?
And most importantly, what steps can you take if you do find yourself relapsing? Billy and Jason's conversation is raw and real, reflecting the unpredictable nature of addiction recovery. They explore how the 12-step program addresses relapse and why seeking support—whether from a sponsor, a trusted friend, or family member—is crucial. The discussion also touches on the role of addiction medicine and the strain addiction can place on relationships.
The hosts emphasize that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to overcoming addiction. Instead, they highlight the importance of a daily commitment to recovery principles and the persistent effort to become better people. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that setbacks are part of the journey, and the true victory lies in the determination to keep moving forward. Whether you're navigating your own recovery or supporting someone else, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement.
