Jay Shifman on Addiction: Breaking Stigmas and Choosing Your Struggles

It's not a choice. It's exactly what I wanted you to do is get out your thoughts.
Addiction isn't a one-size-fits-all issue, and this episode of 'The Recovery Atheist' dives deep into the complexities with guest Jay Shifman. Jay, from the 'Choose Your Struggle' podcast, shares his raw and real journey through addiction and recovery. He emphasizes the importance of choosing your own struggles and sheds light on the often-overlooked aspects of addiction, like the racist and sexist roots of drug policy.
Del Bacon, the host, and Jay challenge the conventional higher power approach, offering secular coping strategies instead. They also discuss how privilege can influence one's experience with addiction. If you're looking to understand addiction beyond the usual narratives, this episode is a must-listen. It encourages you to reflect on your own struggles and the societal structures around you.
