Adverse childhood experiences represent the single greatest unaddressed public health crisis facing our nation today.
Imagine if the events of your childhood could shape your future health in ways you never expected. In this episode of 'Let's Talk Addiction & Recovery', host William C. Moyers sits down with psychiatrist Dr. Stephen Delisi to unpack the profound connection between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and addiction. The conversation dives into how early trauma, such as neglect or abuse, can lead to mental health issues and addiction later in life. Dr.
Delisi sheds light on the ACEs survey, a tool clinicians use to identify these early risk factors, and explains why understanding your ACEs score can be a crucial step towards better health. But it's not all doom and gloom; the episode also explores how resilience can be built and what strategies are available for prevention and treatment.
Whether you're dealing with addiction yourself, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the long-term effects of childhood trauma, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in for a conversation that’s both eye-opening and hopeful.
