Facing the Tough Road to Sobriety: The Realities of Quitting Addiction

Making that decision to say: okay, I wanna, you know, start feeding the good wolf and stop feeding the bad wolf, at whichever age. So I'm not gonna say that I know exactly what it is, just know that it becomes harder.
Quitting an addiction is a journey that demands grit and perseverance, and in this episode of 'Craving Wolves Addiction Podcast', Carel van Heerden doesn't sugarcoat the reality. Carel dives into the relentless effort needed both before and after making the decision to quit. It's not just about deciding to stop; it's about fighting off temptations and battling the mind's deceptive reassurances that the addiction is beneficial.
Carel makes it clear that while the path is challenging, it is absolutely possible to succeed. He emphasizes the importance of not using the difficulty as an excuse to give up but rather as a reason to fight harder. The episode serves as a beacon of hope, encouraging listeners to face their struggles head-on and seek support when needed. By choosing to 'feed the good wolf' and starve the bad one, anyone can overcome their addiction.
Carel’s candid approach offers a mix of tough love and genuine support, making this episode a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
