Beyond the 12 Steps: Finding Your Path to Recovery

If you're looking at treatment, it is not treatment, and if you expect it to work to treat, you know chemical imbalance, depression or other things that can cause craving, it's not going to work.
What happens when the 12 Step Program doesn't quite fit your needs? In this episode of 'Addiction, Recovery and Mental Health', Clare Waismann, David Livingston, and Dwight Hurst tackle this exact question. A listener's concern about the effectiveness of the 12 Step approach sparks a deep dive into alternative recovery methods. They discuss personalized treatment plans, the power of self-advocacy, and the critical role of addressing underlying mental health issues.
You'll also hear about the importance of sleep and other often-overlooked factors in the recovery journey. While the 12 Step Program offers valuable peer support, it may not be a one-size-fits-all solution. The hosts encourage exploring different approaches and stress that professional treatment can make all the difference. As Clare Waismann puts it, 'You've got to listen to people because you'll discover who they are'. Tune in for practical advice and new perspectives on finding your unique path to recovery.
