People not just grow out of it, like you did, or learn how to moderate, because a lot of people do, but that when people have problems, that they just don't all go to AA and NA and that a lot of the public doesn't know how bad it is.
Take a nostalgic journey with Monica Richardson as she revisits the 1970s' teen culture in this episode of Safe Recovery. From the carefree days of beer, pot, and dancing to Marvin Gaye and Barry White, Monica paints a vivid picture of a time when life seemed less restricted. But it's not just about reminiscing. Monica contrasts these memories with the modern rehab and treatment landscape, questioning how we got from there to here.
Are today's approaches really helping, or have we been hoodwinked by the 'Dr. Drew mentality'? This episode doesn't shy away from tough questions, exploring both spiritual and secular alternatives to traditional addiction treatments. Monica is joined by old friends and new bloggers who share their insights and experiences, making this a lively and thought-provoking discussion.
Whether you lived through the '70s or are curious about how past attitudes towards alcohol and drugs compare to today's, this episode offers a fascinating look at how far we've come—and how far we still have to go.
