Rethinking Addiction Therapy: New Perspectives with Doug and Christine

What if there was no need to use the word addict anymore? Today we discuss why the addiction therapy industry has whiffed on helping more people find real solution to the age old problem of addiction.
Imagine a world where the term 'addict' becomes obsolete. In this episode of 'Boy Open Up', hosts Doug Hildreth and Christine Stacey tackle the pressing issues surrounding addiction therapy. They argue that the current, largely unregulated model has failed to provide real solutions for those grappling with substance abuse. Instead of merely labeling individuals, Doug and Christine advocate for a more nuanced approach that addresses underlying trauma and moves beyond the traditional disease model.
They highlight the transformative power of forgiveness in the recovery process and suggest that new methods, such as journaling, can be incredibly effective. The episode also delves into the role of social media in shaping mental health, offering a fresh perspective on its impact. If you're curious about alternative approaches to addiction therapy and eager to hear some candid, thought-provoking discussions, this episode is a must-listen.
