Exposing the Control Model in Addiction Treatment
Addiction Treatment is designed to control people, not help them.
Ever felt like addiction treatment programs are more about control than actual help? This episode of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions' pulls back the curtain on the control model that dominates the industry. Hosts Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar break down how traditional methods like the disease model, 12-step programs, and Alcoholics Anonymous may be doing more harm than good.
They argue that these approaches often create a sense of helplessness and dependency, rather than empowering individuals to take charge of their own lives. Instead, they advocate for a fresh perspective that views addiction as a temporary issue, one that can be resolved without endless meetings or treatments. By focusing on personal choice and responsibility, The Freedom Model offers a liberating alternative to conventional recovery methods.
If you're tired of feeling trapped by traditional addiction treatments, this episode is a must-listen. It's not just about breaking free from addiction; it's about reclaiming your freedom.
