I genuinely, genuinely care about people, because I know what it's like to be completely alone and near death...and having that experience...you can't look at humanity the same way without having compassion.
Ever wondered if everything you hear about Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) is true? In this episode of 'The Social Exchange', host Zach Rhoads sits down with addiction expert Mark Scheeren to sift through the facts and fiction surrounding MAT. Mark, who co-authored 'The Freedom Model For Addictions' and founded The Freedom Model Retreats, brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. He argues that much of what we believe about MAT is based on myths and misconceptions.
They discuss the pros and cons of MAT, shedding light on how misinformation can skew our understanding of addiction treatment. Mark also shares his journey from addiction to becoming a leading voice in the field, advocating for a non-step model approach to recovery. If you're curious about the complexities of addiction and want to challenge your views on treatment, this episode is a must-listen.
