When you're a physician who gets in trouble for doing this kind of thing, I had to go to the states and they basically are calling the shots if you want to keep your license- and, by the way, you're not practicing at this point, you're not a doctor at this point- but if you have any hope of going back, you get to treatment Yesterday and you go through it.
Picture this: a physician battling his own demons while trying to heal others. In this episode of 'Real Recovery', hosts Bill Arnold and George Fraser dive into the complex world of addiction with guest Scott Abrams. Scott, once addicted to painkillers, opens up about his struggles and how his faith in Jesus became a lifeline during his time in rehab. The conversation isn't just about hitting rock bottom; it's about finding the strength to climb back up.
Bill and George also share their own experiences, highlighting the importance of recognizing and overcoming character defects through prayer and self-reflection. They discuss how accountability and support groups can be game-changers in the recovery process. If you're looking for a story that combines the raw truth of addiction with the hope of spiritual transformation, this episode is a must-listen.
Scott's journey from addiction to redemption, and his ongoing mission to help others, serves as a powerful reminder that faith can be a cornerstone in the fight against addiction.
