JUDY: A Movie Review with Insights on Addiction and Recovery

And in The Old Days, in The Old Days, before all of this recovery stuff, uh, people just accepted that there was some suffering in life
How does Hollywood's portrayal of addiction stack up against real-life experiences? In this episode of The Addiction Solution Podcast, Steven and Mark take a deep dive into the movie JUDY, offering their thoughts and reactions. They start by sharing their emotional responses to the film, with Steven admitting he was moved to tears multiple times. This sets the stage for a broader discussion on the nature of addiction and recovery.
The hosts challenge the conventional view that addiction is a lifelong disease, instead advocating for a perspective that focuses on personal choice and responsibility. They argue that emotional pain and suffering, often depicted in films like JUDY, are temporary issues that can be overcome without labeling oneself as an addict for life. Throughout the episode, Steven and Mark debunk myths surrounding traditional rehab treatments and 12-step programs, promoting their freedom model solution as a more effective approach.
Their commentary is both informative and thought-provoking, providing listeners with new ways to think about addiction and recovery. If you're curious about how movies influence our understanding of addiction or if you're seeking an alternative approach to recovery, this episode offers valuable insights.
