It wasn't really helping the pain all that much...I did it on my own, just because you didn't want something different, just like I did it on my own.
Why do we often place so much trust in authority figures, even when their advice doesn't quite resonate with us? In this episode of 'Alive and Free', Bob Gardner sits down with Amber, who shares her powerful story of battling chronic pain and addiction. Amber's journey began with a prescription for pain pills, which quickly spiraled into addiction.
Despite her doctor's warning that quitting cold turkey could be fatal, Amber took control of her life and stopped the medication on her own terms—and survived to tell the tale. This episode dives into the dangers of blindly following authority figures and emphasizes the importance of trusting your own instincts. Bob and Amber discuss how questioning authority can lead to true freedom from addiction and suffering.
They explore the significance of taking control of your healing journey, challenging personal beliefs, and understanding the role of trauma in addiction. If you're ready to rethink the way you approach recovery and embrace the power of self-trust, this episode is a must-listen.
