Nathan McLean: A Pharmacist's Journey Through Addiction and Recovery

People need to understand that if you're not monitoring yourself and you're not advocating for your own mental health and setting those lines and saying you know what like for me, I mean I won't consistently work full-time.
What happens when a community pharmacist faces his own battle with addiction? In this episode of the Recovery Machine Podcast, co-host Nathan McLean opens up about his personal struggles with substance use, mental health, and the power of self-advocacy. Nathan, who has years of experience working in pharmacies, shares his story alongside co-host Corey Williams, shedding light on the unique challenges faced by healthcare professionals dealing with addiction.
Nathan and Corey dive into the significance of community support in the recovery process. They discuss how perfectionism can often be a hidden burden for those struggling with addiction, and why setting boundaries is crucial for maintaining mental health and preventing relapse. Nathan emphasizes the importance of advocating for one's own mental well-being and shares practical advice on how to do so effectively.
The conversation also touches on broader issues like drug addiction among healthcare workers and the evolving landscape of addiction recovery. The hosts discuss the current paths available for healthcare professionals seeking help and how the industry is changing to better support those in need. Wrapping up, Nathan and Corey highlight the value of open and honest communication within support groups.
They believe that authentic conversations can be a lifeline for those in recovery, offering a sense of connection and understanding that is often missing in more formal settings. If you're interested in hearing a heartfelt and informative discussion on addiction, recovery, and the human side of healthcare, this episode is a must-listen. Join Nathan and Corey as they navigate these complex topics with empathy and insight.
