Rediscovering Yourself: Identity and Addiction Recovery

In addiction it doesn't matter if we are secure or insecure in our identities. And so we live up to the label, even though we don't believe that these things are truly us.
Imagine losing yourself in the maze of addiction, only to find your way back to a renewed sense of self. That's what Brian Ario dives into in this episode of 'Everyday Addict'. He explores how addiction can distort personal identity, leaving individuals feeling lost and disconnected from who they truly are. Through candid reflections and personal anecdotes, Brian discusses how interactions with family, friends, and community shape our identity.
Yet, addiction can strip away this sense of self, replacing it with negative labels and diminished self-worth. But there's hope. Brian shares how the recovery process can help individuals rebuild their identity, reconnect with their core values, and restore self-confidence. If you're on a journey to reclaim your true self or supporting someone who is, this episode offers invaluable insights and encouragement.
