I became a spokesperson for everyone else out there that's addicted and thinks they can't get out of it, and I became a person that tries to change the world, one addict at a time.
Picture this: a father and son, one struggling with addiction and the other dealing drugs. This is the premise of 'Son to Son', a short film written and starred in by the multi-talented Jim Meskimen. In this episode of The Addiction Podcast - Point of No Return, hosts Joanie Sigal and Jason Good sit down with Meskimen to discuss the compelling story behind the film and its powerful message about addiction.
Meskimen, known for his work as a Hollywood filmmaker, actor, artist, impressionist, and comedian, brings a fresh perspective to the conversation on addiction. He shares his personal experiences and the journey that led him to become an advocate for those battling substance abuse. The episode dives into the changing landscape of rehab, exploring alternative approaches to detox and withdrawal, and the importance of education for sustainable lifestyle changes.
Meskimen also highlights the pitfalls of traditional treatment programs and the danger of substituting one drug for another. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding addiction from a different angle and finding hope in unconventional paths to recovery.
