Sometimes we go on the phone with them and they are defeated, but it's so, so worth it. Because if you're living on the street, that's not a supportive environment, and a lot of them have accepted that, and that's what you need to break.
Military veterans often face unique challenges that can make them more susceptible to substance abuse. This episode of Recovery Radio dives deep into these issues with Kasey Creeden, Retreat's Associate Director of Admissions. Kasey shares eye-opening insights into the harsh realities veterans face, from the impact of trauma and injuries to the struggles of living on the streets. She emphasizes the critical importance of aftercare plans and continuous support in breaking the cycle of addiction.
With a compassionate tone, Kasey explains how education and addressing underlying issues can pave the way for a successful recovery. Whether you're a veteran, know someone who is, or are simply interested in understanding more about this important topic, this episode offers valuable perspectives and hope.
