Love's Role in Recovery: A Heartfelt Discussion with Trey Lewis

We also need to learn what does love look like in the middle of active addiction?
What does love need to look like when facing addiction? In this moving episode of 'THE COMEBACK: Stories That Inspire', Trey Lewis from Good Landing Recovery dives into the critical role love plays in the journey to recovery. Trey passionately discusses how families can better understand addiction, emphasizing the importance of education and choosing treatment centers that align with personal beliefs.
He sheds light on the nature of addiction as a disease, explaining that once someone becomes chemically dependent, their body processes substances as a basic need, stripping them of choice. This makes seeking help an urgent necessity. Trey also shares his personal perspective on selecting the right treatment program, stressing that it should resonate with the individual's beliefs to be truly effective.
For instance, he wouldn't place his children in front of a non-believing clinician, underscoring the profound impact of faith in the recovery process. The episode doesn't shy away from the tough realities of recovery, highlighting potential challenges and the importance of a united front from loved ones. Trey reminds us that addiction often convinces sufferers they don't have a problem, making early intervention and unwavering support crucial.
This episode is a heartfelt guide for families and friends navigating the complex path of supporting a loved one through addiction. Trey's insights are not just informative but deeply encouraging, offering hope and practical advice for those in the throes of this battle.
