Detox and Beyond: Navigating Recovery with Expert Insights

To come into the detox unit is probably the hardest step anyone can take in beginning their journey to sobriety.
Curious about the first steps to sobriety and what comes after? In this episode of Friends in Recovery, Podfather Mike Miles, Jeff Zeizel, and Ed Chionchio Sr sit down with Bea McCullough and Lori Tetreault from Roger Williams Medical Center. They chat about the crucial role of detox in addiction recovery, shedding light on why it's often the hardest yet most vital step.
The conversation covers the benefits of a harm-reduction model and how medication-assisted recovery can make a significant difference for those who struggle with quitting cold turkey. The episode also underscores the importance of aftercare, particularly residential programs, in maintaining long-term sobriety. Bea and Lori share their professional insights on why education is a cornerstone of recovery, emphasizing that understanding your addiction is key to overcoming it.
Whether you're on your own journey or supporting a loved one, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical advice to help you navigate the path to recovery.
