Nobody else is going to do this for us, fortunately or unfortunately. But it's an internal like: okay, I'm the one responsible for getting better, not not in any way like I'm responsible for that.
Ever wondered how the tough times in your childhood might be affecting you today? In this compelling episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer sits down with his good friend, Dr. Jon Mills, to discuss the profound impact of adverse childhood experiences on our adult lives. Drawing from the pivotal Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study, they explore how early trauma can ripple through decades, influencing everything from mental health to addiction and behavior patterns. Dr.
Mills breaks down the findings of the study, explaining how a higher number of adverse experiences correlates with increased risks of addiction, depression, and other behavioral health issues. The conversation isn't just about identifying problems; it's about finding solutions. Eric and Dr. Mills highlight the importance of therapeutic approaches in substance abuse treatment and stress the need for personal responsibility in healing.
By understanding our past, we can break free from cycles of blame and fault-finding, paving the way for genuine recovery and growth. Whether you're grappling with your own past or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
