Switching Dependence: Finding Inner Peace in Recovery

They suggested I switch my dependence and then improve conscious contact so I can move.
Ever felt like you're constantly searching for comfort in all the wrong places? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald tackles the idea of dependence and how it plays a crucial role in recovery. The episode, titled 'Switch MY Dependence', starts with a doctor's opinion that alcoholics are often restless, irritable, and discontented unless they can find ease and comfort through alcohol.
But Joe flips the script by suggesting that true recovery isn't about abstinence alone; it's about shifting your dependence to something more meaningful and sustainable. Joe dives into his own journey, sharing how he found solace in a higher power and the act of serving others. He believes that being 'inebriated in the spirit' can be a powerful antidote to the cravings that once controlled him. The episode also touches on the often-overlooked role of psychologists in recovery.
Joe questions how many of us have sought professional help, only to lie or ignore their advice. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of lived experience and peer support in the healing process. This episode isn't just about swapping one crutch for another; it's about finding a deeper, more fulfilling source of comfort from within. Joe's candid stories and practical advice make this a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
Tune in to discover how switching your dependence can lead to lasting peace and recovery.
