When you develop that habit, and then you kind of just go on autopilot, because it's something you always do right, and you don't stop to become self-aware that maybe it isn't that great anymore. That's something that'll be more rewarding for me.
What if everything you believed about addiction was turned on its head? In this episode of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions', hosts Michelle Dunbar and Mark Scheeren challenge the deeply ingrained notion that drugs and alcohol hold any magical power over us. They argue that our culture has unfairly elevated these substances, attributing them with powers they simply don’t possess.
By stripping away these false beliefs, Michelle and Mark believe you can reclaim control over your life and break free from the cycle of addiction and recovery traps. The episode dives into the idea that addiction is not a disease, and that traditional treatment methods like rehab and 12-step programs might actually hinder your chances of overcoming it. Instead, they propose a revolutionary approach: devalue the substances themselves.
This means recognizing that the 'magic' you seek from drugs or alcohol is something you can actually find within yourself. Michelle and Mark discuss how daily habits can put us on autopilot, making it easy to lose self-awareness. They encourage listeners to open their minds to the possibility of finding fulfillment and happiness without relying on substances. This episode is a call to action for anyone feeling stuck in the endless loop of addiction and recovery.
By shifting your perspective and devaluing drugs and alcohol, you can pave the way to a more rewarding and autonomous life.
