Coach Blu Explores Co-Occurring Disorders on Addict II Athlete Podcast

Many of you may not know exactly what it is, and I think it's important because some people think, well, I'm having mood swings and whatnot. I think that with bipolar we have to be a little bit more aware of the longevity of it, the frequency of it, and I think that we got to know what it is.
Ever wondered how mental health issues and addiction can intertwine? Coach Blu Robinson unpacks this complex relationship in a thought-provoking episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast. Known for his compassionate approach, Blu dives into the most common co-occurring disorders found alongside substance use disorders. He breaks down generalized anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), personality disorders, and mood disorders, offering a clear understanding of each.
Special attention is given to borderline personality disorder, shedding light on its unique challenges and manifestations. Throughout the episode, Blu's empathetic tone provides a comforting guide through these sensitive topics. He discusses how these disorders manifest, what signs to look for, and the importance of seeking professional help and support groups. He even touches on the therapeutic power of music in the recovery process.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with dual diagnosis, offering both valuable insights and a message of hope.
