We debunk all of that, you know, and we say: because you've been fighting that boogeyman of addiction, right, you've been trying to be strong.
What if the traditional ways of treating addiction are missing the mark? Steven Slate, co-author of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions: Escape the Treatment and Recovery Trap', thinks so. In this episode of 'Challenging Pathos', host Glenn Marshall dives into a conversation with Slate, who brings a fresh perspective to addiction recovery. Forget the disease model and twelve-step meetings; Slate argues that choice, identity, and a non-judgmental approach are key to breaking free from addiction.
Drawing from his own journey and research at the Baldwin Research Institute, Slate sheds light on why he believes current treatment methods fall short and how The Freedom Model offers a viable alternative. They also touch on the broader implications of drug policy and legalization. If you're looking for new insights into addiction recovery or questioning the effectiveness of traditional methods, this episode is a must-listen.
