Naloxone and MAT: Breaking Stigmas and Saving Lives

Eventually, you know your body, just on reflex, will try to take a breath by itself, but that's not going to sustain your brain.
Ever felt overwhelmed by the complexities of addiction recovery? Ce'gon S. and Mark W. tackle this head-on in an eye-opening episode of 'Recovery on the Real'. They dive into the critical role of Naloxone (Narcan) and harm reduction resources, shedding light on how these tools can be lifesavers in the journey to sobriety. The conversation doesn't shy away from the stigma surrounding Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT) either.
Ce'gon shares his personal experiences with carrying Naloxone, both muscular and nasal forms, emphasizing its life-saving potential. Mark complements this with valuable resources for those in need of harm reduction support. The duo also explores the paradoxes of addiction, discussing Suboxone's benefits and drawbacks, and the importance of community support in overcoming biases. This episode is a heartfelt call to action: seek help, use available resources, and remember that you're never alone on this path.
Tune in for an honest, compassionate discussion that might just change how you view addiction recovery.
