Reimagining Addiction Counseling with Bob Forrest

So probably maybe back in a simpler time, Chuck, a simpler time.
Imagine a world where addiction counseling doesn't just follow the old, tired scripts. In this thought-provoking episode of Bob Forrest's 'Don't Die Podcast', Bob and Chuk discuss the need for a fresh approach to addiction treatment. They reminisce about the days of Methadone clinics and explore why the current models aren't cutting it anymore. Bob is passionate about the importance of truly knowing your kids and building strong communities as part of the recovery process.
He also tackles the controversial role of suboxone in treatment and doesn't shy away from calling out the hypocrisies within rehab centers. The conversation shifts to the influence of big pharma and politicians on drug addiction, especially among the youth. Bob underscores the necessity of setting practical goals in treatment and creating genuine pathways to freedom.
With his signature blend of honesty and humor, Bob leaves listeners with a poignant reflection: 'Maybe we need to look back at simpler times to find better solutions'. Tune in for an episode that challenges the status quo and offers a new vision for addiction counseling.
