Relapse Realities: Jamie Salsburg on Learning and Growing from Setbacks

I don't think relapse is something where you just can't beat it. What I think is that it's just showing a gap, a gap in either knowledge or actions.
Recovery is rarely a straight path, and setbacks are often part of the journey. In this episode of 'The After Gambling Podcast', Jamie Salsburg dives into the often-misunderstood topic of relapse. Drawing from his own experiences as a former compulsive gambler, Jamie sheds light on what relapses can teach us about our recovery process. He argues that rather than viewing relapse as a failure, it should be seen as a chance to learn and grow.
Jamie emphasizes the importance of ongoing education and proactive measures to prevent future relapses. He offers practical advice on setting personal barriers, staying accountable, and seeking professional help when needed. Moreover, he underscores the value of community support in maintaining long-term recovery. This episode is a heartfelt and informative guide for anyone grappling with the ups and downs of addiction recovery, providing both comfort and actionable strategies to keep moving forward.
