Hitting Rock Bottom: Understanding and Healing from Addiction and Self-Harm

When you get to the point to where you don't love yourself and you hate where you're at and what you're doing, you have two choices: change your environment or self-medicate, whether that's drugs or cutting, or whatever that might be, and I had to come out of that. I had to recreate love for myself in order for it to work, for me going forward and not want to harm myself or get to the point where I don't care, it doesn't matter.
What does it really mean to hit rock bottom? In this episode of 'The Agents of Recovery', Max Hall, Coach Blu Robinson, and Brock Bevell tackle this question head-on. They dive into listener questions about the lowest points in addiction and what it takes to start climbing back up. This isn't just about definitions; it's about real-life stories and practical advice. The hosts share their own experiences and the moments that made them realize change was necessary.
It's raw, honest, and deeply relatable. But the episode doesn't stop there. It also delves into the painful topic of self-harm. Why do people hurt themselves? What are they trying to express or escape from? The conversation covers the emotional and psychological reasons behind self-harming behaviors and offers paths to healing. The trio discusses the importance of self-love, counseling, and the power of mentorship in recovery.
They break down how negative reinforcement can trap someone in a cycle of self-harm and how positive support can help break free. Whether you're struggling yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and hope. It's a heartfelt discussion aimed at understanding the depths of addiction and finding ways to heal.
