Redefining Alcohol Use: Insights from Experts and Advocates

For me, the critical thing is keeping people in treatment and looking to see how well they're functioning.
Ever wondered what really defines an unhealthy relationship with alcohol? In this episode of the Landmark Recovery Podcast, host Zachary Crouch brings together two insightful guests to break it all down. Dr. Joseph Volpicelli, a seasoned addiction researcher, dives into what constitutes an alcohol use disorder and how to recognize when casual drinking spirals into addiction. He shares his extensive research on naltrexone, a medication that can help prevent relapse, and offers practical advice on designing effective treatment programs.
But that's not all. Rosalind Donald, a Victim Services Specialist for Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), joins the conversation to shed light on the devastating impact of drunk driving. She shares personal stories that highlight the dangers and emphasizes the importance of prevention. Both guests stress the critical role of connection in recovery and discuss how trauma often plays a part in addiction.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complexities of alcohol use and the paths to recovery.
