Ever wondered what it's like for pilots caught in the web of a mandatory recovery program? In this episode of Safe Recovery, host Monica Richardson sits down with the author of 'The HIMS Nightmare', a practical guide that sheds light on the controversial Human Intervention Motivation Study (HIMS) program. Initially designed to help pilots recover from substance abuse, HIMS has morphed into a tool that can control pilots' careers and lives, often relying on outdated AA-based methods.
The episode dives into the murky waters of this program, highlighting its pitfalls and the legal challenges pilots face. You'll hear about the intense monitoring and the pressure pilots are under to comply, sometimes for their entire careers. But it’s not all doom and gloom; the discussion also covers alternatives to HIMS and emphasizes the importance of peer support in recovery.
If you're curious about the intersection of addiction recovery and the aviation industry, or if you just love a good David vs. Goliath story, this episode is a must-listen.
