A drunk is the same as an addict and the junkie is the same as the alcoholic. We all share the same disease and all will eventually find the same end: jails, institutions or death, unless we find recovery first.
Ever found yourself questioning whether your drinking habits are a sign of something more serious? In this heartfelt episode of the 'Addictionaide' podcast, hosts Larry and Wally tackle the tough questions many face on the road to recovery: 'Am I an alcoholic? Am I an addict?' Sharing their personal stories, they offer a candid look at the signs and symptoms of addiction, making it relatable for anyone who might be struggling.
Larry and Wally dive deep into the importance of self-awareness and reflection in the recovery process. They discuss how recognizing the problem is the first crucial step toward seeking help. They also highlight the role of support systems in maintaining sobriety, showing that no one has to go through this journey alone.
The episode touches on the disease model of addiction, explaining how it shapes treatment approaches and helps in understanding addiction as a medical condition rather than a moral failing. Overcoming stigma is another key theme, with Larry and Wally emphasizing that seeking help is not a sign of weakness but a brave step towards personal growth. This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
It’s filled with compassion, practical advice, and a powerful message of hope. By sharing their journeys, Larry and Wally show that recovery is not just possible but transformative.
