Balancing Life and Opioid Use: A Journey Through Non-Abstinent Recovery

I guess what disturbs me more than anything is just the prevalence of this abstinence concept that I'm very happy that it works for the people that it works for, but I have a problem with that being imposed even down to the letter of the law...
Ever wondered if it's possible to lead a fulfilling life while using opioids recreationally? In this episode of the Recovery Machine Podcast, hosts Nathan McLean and Corey Williams sit down with Peter Milosz, a listener and friend of the show, to explore this very question. Peter shares his personal journey, revealing how he has managed to find balance and meaning without complete abstinence from substances.
This isn't your typical recovery story; it's a raw and honest look at an alternative path that challenges conventional wisdom on addiction. The conversation touches on various aspects of substance use, including harm reduction, cognitive behavioral therapy, and the impact of trauma and PTSD. Nathan and Corey also discuss the broader implications of drug policy and the different recovery models that exist beyond abstinence.
Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or know someone who is, this episode offers a fresh perspective that might just resonate with you. Tune in to hear Peter's unique insights and learn how he navigates the complexities of addiction while maintaining a full and meaningful life.
