Addiction is any behavior you continue to do despite the fact it brings negative consequences into your life.
Ever felt like your struggles with addiction were just too much to handle? In this episode of 'Recovery 2.0', Tommy Rosen dives deep into what he calls the Big 6 Addictions and the 4 Aggravations. With his wealth of experience, Tommy sheds light on how these common addictions—drugs, alcohol, food, people, money, and technology—impact our lives.
He doesn't just list them; he gets into the nitty-gritty of each one, sharing personal stories and real-life examples that make it all hit home. Tommy talks about food addiction and how emotional eating can lead to serious health issues, even sharing a heartbreaking story about someone who lost their life due to complications from high blood pressure related to food addiction.
He also touches on codependency, a tricky relationship issue many of us face, and sex addiction, which has become more widespread with the rise of internet technology. Tommy's own experiences with sex addiction make his insights particularly relatable and poignant. But that's not all. Tommy introduces the 4 Aggravations—self-doubt, addiction, procrastination, and resentment—that often worsen these addictions. He offers practical advice on how to tackle these negative thought patterns and shift towards a more positive mindset.
One of his key messages? Lift yourself and others up with positive mental chatter. It's about taking control of your thoughts and actions to foster a healthier mental space. This episode isn't just informative; it's like having a heart-to-heart with a friend who truly understands what you're going through. Whether you're at the beginning of your recovery journey or looking for ways to deepen your existing practice, Tommy's insights offer valuable guidance.
