With addiction, you could almost say it's like a dopamine resistance. The whole idea about abstinence is it settles some of that hijacking and eventually makes the hijacking less and less so that you're giving back your natural.
Ever wondered how spirituality and science can intersect on the road to recovery? In this episode of 'Atheists in Recovery', Dr. Adina Silvestri sits down with addiction specialist Dr. Vera Tarman to unpack the intricacies of food and sugar addiction. Dr. Tarman's journey is anything but ordinary.
From her early days in a German convent to her current role in addiction medicine, she shares how questioning traditional religious beliefs shaped her understanding of group connection and the human need for belief in something greater. They dive into the nitty-gritty of addiction, discussing dopamine resistance and the challenges of abstinence. Dr. Tarman also touches on practical approaches like low-carb diets and the importance of weighing and measuring food.
But it's not all about the science; they explore how a higher power—however you define it—can be a cornerstone in recovery. This episode is a treasure trove of insights and practical advice for anyone grappling with addiction, offering a hopeful message that healing is possible. Whether you're struggling with food addiction or looking for new perspectives on recovery, this conversation provides a blend of empathy, science, and spirituality that might just be the support you need.
