Triggers are social, environmental, or emotional situations that remind people in recovery of their past drug or alcohol use. The cravings act as a reflex to external or internal triggers, and this response can even affect individuals who have abstained from drugs or alcohol for long periods of time.
Ever found yourself wondering if triggers are real or just an excuse? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as the Monty'man, tackles the complex issue of triggers in addiction recovery. With a mix of personal anecdotes and expert opinions, Monty explores whether triggers genuinely affect individuals in recovery or if they serve as convenient scapegoats for relapse.
The conversation dives deep into both internal triggers, like self-loathing and depression, and external ones, such as certain environments or social situations. Monty is joined by guests who share their own experiences, shedding light on how triggers have impacted their recovery journeys. They also discuss the vital role of support systems and the 12 steps in managing these challenges.
Towards the end, the episode takes a hopeful turn, emphasizing the power of spiritual awakening and the importance of a strong support network. This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the ups and downs of recovery, offering practical insights and a sense of community.
