But that's also where you'll find the difference of a heavy user and a quote-unquote addict, and instead the heavy user can and will stop and stay stopped if they have a good enough reason, like jail, divorce, death, the big three and someone like myself.
What happens when we convince ourselves that we're the exception to the rule? In this eye-opening episode of 'Retrieving Sanity', Tanner Keegan dives deep into the dangerous mindset that addicts often fall into—the belief that 'this time it will be different'. Keegan unpacks how this little lie can trap individuals in a relentless cycle of addiction, making it harder to break free each time they fall back into old habits.
Drawing from his own experiences, he emphasizes the importance of recognizing this delusion and offers practical advice on how to confront it head-on. You'll hear about the critical differences between heavy users and addicts, warning signs to watch out for, and the crucial role of hope and faith in the recovery journey. Keegan also shares his personal story of detoxing from alcohol, adding a raw and relatable touch to the conversation.
Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself, supporting someone who is, or simply looking to understand more about this complex issue, this episode offers valuable insights and real-world strategies. Tune in for a candid discussion that aims to shed light on the often-overlooked aspects of addiction and recovery.
