I saw my addiction as a symptom and they're saying no, no, no, you're totally wrong.
Ever wondered what it's like to face the double-edged sword of addiction and mental health issues? In this episode of 'The Way Out', hosts Charlie and Jason sit down with David Poses, the author of 'The Weight of Air'. David's journey is not just another recovery story; it's a raw, honest look at the intertwined struggles of depression and addiction.
He dives into the complexities of whether mental health issues fuel addiction or vice versa, a question that many in recovery grapple with. David also sheds light on the role of medically assisted treatment and therapy in his recovery process. His candid discussion about the stigma surrounding addiction and mental health offers a fresh perspective on these often misunderstood issues. One striking moment is when David recalls being told he was wrong about seeing his addiction as a symptom.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with similar challenges or supporting someone who is. It's an eye-opener that underscores the importance of understanding the root causes of addiction and approaching recovery with compassion and an open mind.
