Rethinking Addiction: Stanton Peele on Depression, AA, and Finding Better Paths

It's almost like malpractice that people allow people to be thrust into that kind of an environment when they're depressed.
Ever felt like the traditional routes to addiction recovery just don't cut it? This episode of 'Safe Recovery' might be what you need. Monica Richardson sits down with psychologist and addiction specialist Stanton Peele to dissect the complex relationship between addiction and depression, inspired by the tragic suicide of Robin Williams. Peele, known for his groundbreaking work in addiction recovery, takes a critical look at the limitations of AA and other conventional methods.
He doesn't hold back on discussing the dangers posed by 'recovery bullies' within AA and the pitfalls of taking advice from non-professionals. Instead, he advocates for alternative approaches that emphasize compassion, therapy, and a healthy self-image. If you're tired of feeling powerless and are looking for more holistic ways to tackle addiction, this episode is a must-listen. It offers a fresh perspective that could change how you view recovery.
