Coping with Crisis: Managing Stress and Addiction with Clare Waismann and David Livingston

If we can find something that we can do that's healthy to do, then what we're trying to do then is satisfy in a healthy way, the same part of us that self-medicates.
Feeling overwhelmed by the constant barrage of crises in the world? You're not alone. Clare Waismann and David Livingston tackle this very issue, focusing on how stress overload and emotional fatigue can trigger substance abuse and relapse. They dive into the emotional and psychological toll that crisis-related trauma can take on those struggling with addiction and mental health issues. But it's not all doom and gloom—they also share practical strategies to help you manage these feelings in a healthy way.
From the benefits of staying present-focused to the importance of engaging in positive activities, this episode is packed with actionable advice. The hosts also touch on how social media can be a double-edged sword, offering both hope and anxiety, and suggest ways to limit exposure to stress-inducing news. Whether you're personally affected by addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights to help navigate these challenging times.
