I mean we've been criminalizing folks with mental health and substance use disorders and using criminal justice determinants in how we treat them, when it really should be a medical issue.
Ever heard of I-Dosing or wondered how a pro-wrestler could create a prevention documentary? In this episode of 'Atypical', hosts Mary Crocker Cook and Gary Montrezza take you on an entertaining journey through some of the latest news in addiction recovery. They tackle serious topics with a light-hearted twist, making complex issues more digestible. This episode covers everything from the intriguing world of I-Dosing and sound therapy to the critical discussion on criminal justice and methadone treatment.
Mary and Gary argue that substance use disorders should be treated as medical issues rather than criminal ones, highlighting the grim reality that prisoners are 10 times more likely to die of an overdose than the general population. They also dive into the ADA's definition of disability and introduce some fresh DEA slang terms, adding a touch of humor to serious conversations.
And if you're a fan of wrestling, you'll be intrigued by the story of a pro-wrestler who took his fight outside the ring to create a prevention documentary. With their witty banter and insightful reflections, Mary and Gary make this episode both fun and thought-provoking. Whether you're in recovery, a professional in the field, or just curious about addiction recovery news, this episode offers a unique blend of humor and information.
Tune in for an unconventional look at addiction recovery that promises to keep you engaged and informed.
