Challenging Drug Stigma: Dr. Carl Hart's Bold Take

The vast majority of people who use drugs do so with no problem. In fact, drugs -- yes, even so-called 'hard drugs' -- offer more positive than negative experiences.
What if everything you thought you knew about drug use was wrong? In this eye-opening episode of the LPP Podcast, Dr. Carl Hart sits down with Zach Rhoads to discuss his groundbreaking book, 'Drug Use For Grown-Ups'. Dr. Hart, a professor at Columbia University, shatters conventional beliefs by arguing that most people use drugs without any problems. He even shares his own experiences, urging others to speak openly about their drug use. Dr.
Hart believes that the real issue lies not in the drugs themselves but in the dishonesty and stigma surrounding them. He passionately advocates for decriminalization and emphasizes that drugs can enhance creativity and well-being when used responsibly. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in a fresh, controversial perspective on drug use and addiction.
