The opposite of addiction is connections, not sobriety.
Ever wondered about the lesser-known dangers of methadone? In this eye-opening episode of Soberoso, host Dora Gosselin sits down with Mike Fiore, who brings his personal journey and expertise to the table. Mike shares his raw and unfiltered experiences with methadone, a synthetic opioid often prescribed to help people wean off heroin and other opioids. Known on the streets as 'liquid handcuffs', methadone can be an even tougher beast to conquer than the drugs it aims to replace.
But why is that, and what can be done about it? Mike and Dora dive deep into the complexities of addiction and recovery, touching on the emotional and physical toll methadone takes on individuals and their families. They also discuss the crucial role of connection in the recovery process. As Mike puts it, 'the opposite of addiction isn’t just sobriety; it’s connection'.
Through heartfelt stories and practical advice, this episode sheds light on how to build those essential connections and reclaim control over your life. The conversation doesn't stop there. Dora and Mike explore the power of self-reflection through journaling, the calming benefits of meditation, and the importance of sharing one's story to inspire others. They emphasize that recovery is not a solitary journey but a collective effort that thrives on community support.
Whether you're battling addiction, supporting a loved one, or simply curious about the intricacies of recovery, this episode offers valuable insights and hope. Tune in to hear Mike's compelling story and learn how to navigate the challenging path to sobriety with resilience and connection.
