Stanton Peele's Life Process Program: Rethinking Addiction

Stop thinking like an addict is the primary thing you need to do to begin to improve your life and get out from underneath your addiction.
Have you ever wondered if there’s a different way to tackle addiction beyond the usual methods? In this episode of Harm Reduction Radio - HAMS, host Kenneth Anderson chats with Stanton Peele, Ph.D., JD, a trailblazer in addiction treatment. Peele, the mastermind behind the Life Process Program, shares his revolutionary idea that to beat addiction, you need to change the way you think about it.
Forget the label of 'addict'; Peele believes that shifting your mindset is the first step towards reclaiming your life. Throughout the conversation, Peele dives into why the DSM avoids using the term 'addiction' for drugs and alcohol and points out some surprising ironies in traditional addiction treatments. He also highlights the importance of recognizing your strengths and building on them, rather than focusing solely on your struggles.
It’s a refreshing take that offers hope and practical advice for anyone grappling with substance abuse or supporting someone who is. This episode is packed with insights and practical tips that challenge conventional wisdom and offer a new perspective on recovery. Whether you're looking to understand addiction better or seeking new strategies for yourself or a loved one, Peele's approach provides a thoughtful and empowering alternative.
