Beyond AA: Kendra's Journey Through Alcohol Use Disorder Recovery

I can't really expect people to come on and open up to us if I'm not going to turn around and do the same thing and be honest and open when I'm experiencing something mental health related.
What if the traditional path to recovery doesn't quite fit your needs? In this episode of the Crazy Bitches podcast, co-founder Kendra opens up about her personal experience with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and her evolving views on addiction treatment. Joined by her co-hosts and guest Alisha, Kendra dives into the nitty-gritty of different recovery models, including the well-known Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and other 12-step programs.
But they don't stop there—they also explore alternative approaches that offer a more individualized path to recovery. Ever wondered if honesty and openness could be key to overcoming addiction? Kendra and her team believe so. They discuss the role of self-medicating in addiction and the unique challenges of treating concurrent mental health conditions. The conversation takes a deep dive into choice theory and how it influences treatment options, weighing the pros and cons of both abstinence-based and non-abstinence-based recovery models.
If you're curious about different ways to tackle alcohol use disorder or if you're seeking an approach that resonates more with your personal journey, this episode offers a wealth of insights. Tune in to hear real talk about the complexities of addiction and the various paths to recovery.
