Untreated Addiction: Dr. Marvin's Stark Warning on Jails, Institutions, and Death

Be aware that if you have the symptoms of overly doing something- alcoholism, addiction- then address it as soon as you can get some confirmation of what you're dealing with and get treatment or get some type of help, because it doesn't end pretty jails, institutions or death.
What happens when addiction goes untreated? Dr. Marvin Johns doesn't sugarcoat it in this eye-opening episode of 'Recovery and Reinvention'. He tackles the harsh realities head-on, discussing how untreated addiction can lead to jails, institutions, or even death. Dr. Marvin opens up about his own family's struggles with alcoholism, emphasizing that addiction often runs in families and can morph into other destructive behaviors like stealing or gambling. But it's not all doom and gloom.
He also talks about the importance of recognizing the warning signs of relapse and seeking help before it's too late. With a mix of personal anecdotes and professional insights, Dr. Marvin makes a compelling case for early intervention and treatment. If you're dealing with addiction or know someone who is, this episode is a must-listen.
