Professor Carl Hart: Rethinking Drug Addiction and Recovery

I think people just overstate what we know about the brain and drugs and they overstate what has actually been found.
Ever wondered if what you know about addiction might be all wrong? In this episode of SAFE RECOVERY, host Monica Richardson sits down with Professor Carl Hart, a leading figure in psychology and psychiatry at Columbia University. Known for his groundbreaking research on drug abuse and addiction, Professor Hart isn't afraid to challenge the status quo. He dives into the failures of the war on drugs and stresses the importance of honesty and education in truly understanding substance use issues.
One of the episode's standout moments is Hart's take on how society often exaggerates what we know about the brain and drugs. This eye-opening discussion also touches on the impact of race in addiction treatment, urging listeners to recognize and address these disparities. With a focus on empowerment over powerlessness, the conversation explores alternative healing methods that might just change how you view recovery.
If you're tired of the same old narratives and are looking for a fresh, honest perspective on addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
