It's not okay when you shift from some other drug to a THC product. If you have addiction issues, it's not. The lie is the lie is the lie. And that is a lie. But far be it from me to pass judgment. I'm not passing judgment. It's a clinical experience, right?
Is it ever okay to use THC products while in recovery? This burning question is at the heart of Dr. Jacques DeBruyter's latest episode. As a seasoned psychologist and addiction specialist, Dr. Jacques tackles the controversial topic with his trademark blend of empathy and expertise. He doesn't shy away from the tough questions about societal perceptions of marijuana and its potential pitfalls for those on the path to sobriety.
Instead, he invites listeners to consider the deeper issue of dependency and how to manage life's discomforts without turning to substances. Throughout the episode, Dr. Jacques offers practical advice on seeking professional help, connecting with supportive communities, and embracing healthier coping mechanisms. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode provides a wealth of insights and strategies to navigate the complex landscape of addiction and recovery.
